Continuing interest in development of metallic fuels for nuclear reactors has prompted an examination of the phase relations of many of the relevant binary and ternary systems of interest. We performed a thermodynamic analysis and optimization of the Fe-Zr system. Overall reasonably good agreement was found with published diagrams, but some significant changes were required to ensure thermodynamic consistency.
