MODELING THE PERFORMANCE OF HIGH BURNUP THORIA AND URANIA PWR FUEL
Fuel performance models have been developed to assess the performance of ThO[subscript 2]-UO[subscript 2] fuels that can be operated to a high burnup up to 80-100MWd/kgHM in current and future Light Water Reactors (LWRs). Among the various issues raised in high burnup fuel applications, the pelle...
