  • Characterization of fission product transport in a gen. IV gas-cooled fast reactor plant utilizing vented fuel

    Creator:
    Deason, Wesley
    Abstract:
    Fission product transport in a Gen. IV Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor Plant utilizing vented fuel has been characterized using analytical and computational methods. The goal was to increase current understanding of fission product transport in helium-cooled GFRs using vented fuel and to provide a toolset for determining issues which may arise...

  • Fission Gas Bubble Behavior in Uranium Carbide

    Creator:
    Matthews, Christopher
    Abstract:
    The need for cheap reliable energy, while simultaneously avoiding uranium supply constraints makes uranium carbide (UC) fueled Gas Fast Reactors offer an attractive nuclear reactor design. In order to qualify the fuel, an enhanced understanding of the behavior of uranium carbide during operation is paramount. Due to a reduced re-solution...
