Thermal Conductivity of UO2 to 2100oC
Journal Article
·
· Journal of the American Ceramic Society
The thermal conductivity of UO2 was measured from 833 to 2112 deg C using UO2 disks of 85% theoretical density and the radial heat flow method. The data were corrected to theoretical density and plotted vs. temperature along with the data of W. D. Kingery et al, and Hedge and Fieldhouse; the equation for the least squares fit curve is k = 1/ (17.3 plus or minus 0.016 T), where k is in watts/cm deg C and T is in deg K. Power loss as a possible source of error is discussed, and it is concluded that all the errors from power loss would cause an error in k of not more than 15 to 20%.
