Note on measurement of thermal conductivity of sintered uranium dioxide; Note relative a la mesure de la conductivite thermique du bioxyde d'uranium fritte

Abstract

Thermal conductivity of sintered UO{sub 2} was determined by measuring the quantity of heat having passed in unit time through a plate of given dimensions when a certain temperature difference was being maintained at the faces of the plate. Specimens, about 10 and 40 mm thick and about 65 mm in diameter, were heated electrically, the temperature of both faces being measured by means of iron-constantan thermocouples. The accuracy of the device in its present shape is not high, the relative error being {approx} 15%. The thermal conductivity of sintered UO{sub 2} in the temperature range 20 to 250 deg. C was found to be about 9 x 10{sup -3} cgs units. (author)
