Analysis of Foreign Substance Flow within the Weld Joint through Simulation in Pressurized Water Reactor Nuclear Fuel Rods
The welding of end plugs to cladding tubes is a critical process in the manufacture of pressurized water reactor (PWR) nuclear fuel rods. The resistance butt welding method is commonly used for this purpose in production. In this paper, we present an analysis of the flow of foreign substances within...
