Title: High Burnup Effects Program A State-of-the-Technology Assessment

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1084095· OSTI ID:1084095

Various analytical models and empirical correlations describing the fission gas release phenomenon were examined. An evaluation was made of the current pertinent experimental data on the subject of high burnup fission gas release. Data reported by individual investigators were compared and evaluated in relation to their applicability to the content and scope of the High Burnup Effects Program. These evaluations then form the bases for defining the data needs, and the selection of variables to be studied in this program.
