Low-enriched fuel particle performance review. [UO2]

F.J. Homan, Heinz Nabielek, Li J. Yang

Abstract

The available data on low-enriched uranium (LEU) fuel particles were reviewed under the United States-Federal Republic of Germany Agreement. The most influential factors controlling the irradiation performance of LEU fuel particles were found to be plutonium transport, fission product transport, fuel particle mechanical performance, and fuel particle chemical performance.
