Optimization of the TRISO fuel particle distribution based on octahedral and icosahedral-based segmentation methods in the pebble-bed nuclear core
The random distribution of TRISO fuel particles in the fuel elements may form local hotspots, thereby increasing the thermal stress on TRISO particle layers that may cause particle failures. Optimization of the distribution of TRISO fuel particles can significantly decrease the peak temperature, red...
