Evaluation of fuel rod cladding strength in steady and non-steady reactor operation

Creators

  • 1. INTERATOM, Bergisch-Gladbach (Germany)

Description

This contribution presents a means of interpreting post-irradiation examination results via the fuel rod modelling code IAMBUS. The model predicts the thermal and mechanical behaviour of fuel and cladding in steady and non-steady reactor operation. Great importance was given to investigation of the potential of fuel/clad mechanical interaction as a function of fuel pin design parameters and operating conditions
