Fuel pins with both target and fuel pellets in an isotope-production reactor
Patent
·
OSTI ID:6244562
A method is described for producing tritium in a fast breeder reactor cooled with liquid metal. Lithium target pellets are placed in close contact with fissile fuel pellets in order to increase the tritium production rate.
