SPECIFICATIONS FOR VIBRATIONALLY COMPACTED, MIXED OXIDE (UO$sub 2$-PuO$sub 2$), FUEL ELEMENTS FOR THE PRTR (MARK I-L)
Technical Report

OSTI ID:4065955
Plutonium-containing, mixed oxide, 19-rod cluster fuel elements have been fabricated for the Plutonium Recycle Test Reactor. The particulate, oxide fuel was densified in Zircaloy cladding tubes by vibrational compaction. Some elements contain physical mixtures of UO/sub 2/ and PuO/sub 2/ while others contain high density impacted particles ( Nupac'' process) in which the PuO/sub 2/ is dispersed throughout the UO/sub 2/. Detailed specifications governing the fabrication of such elements were developed during development of the fabrication process. (auth)
