Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4036759· OSTI ID:4036759

The effect of an integrally finned fuel pin cladding design on LMFBR subassembly performance has been evaluated. Effects on thermal/hydraulics, fuel pin lifetime and duct lifetime are considered. Results are presented for 19, 61 and 217 pin subassemblies.
