Mechanistic calculation of the effective silver diffusion coefficient in polycrystalline silicon carbide: Application to silver release in AGR-1 TRISO particles

Journal Article Simon, P. -C.A. ; Aagesen, Larry K. ; Jiang, Chao ; ... - Journal of Nuclear Materials

The silicon carbide (SiC) layer in tristructural isotropic (TRISO) fuel particles serves as a barrier to prevent the escape of fission products produced and not retained in the fuel kernel. The release of silver (Ag) is a concern due to the long half-life of the ^110mAg isotope. However, accurately determining the fission gas release rate requires knowing the diffusion coefficient through the SiC layer. In this study, we leverage atomistic calculations of Ag diffusivity in SiC bulk and grain boundaries (GBs) to develop a mesoscale effective Ag diffusion coefficient (D^eff) in SiC. Since GBs serve as pathways for Ag diffusion,more »« less

Design and Preparation of SiC-ZrC Composite Coating Layers by FB-CVD Used in TRISO Coated Fuel Particles - 18417

Conference Liu, Rongzheng ; Liu, Malin ; Chang, Jiaxing ; ...

Tri-structural-isotropic (TRISO) particle has been successful in high temperature gas cooled reactor (HTGR), but an improved design is required for future development. In this paper, two alternative designs of TRISO particle are proposed by introducing ZrC to the coating layers. One design is to add an individual ZrC layer between the inner PyC layer and the SiC layer. Another design is to construct a periodic coating layer with the repeated sequence of SiC/SiC-ZrC by doping pulsed ZrCl{sub 4} at proper time intervals during the SiC preparation process. The designed coating layers were successfully prepared on the ZrO{sub 2}/buffer/IPyC particles bymore »« less
Pre- and post-irradiation characterization and properties measurements of ZrC coated surrogate TRISO particles

Technical Report Vasudevamurthy, Gokul ; Katoh, Yutai ; Hunn, John D ; ...

Zirconium carbide is a candidate to either replace or supplement silicon carbide as a coating material in TRISO fuel particles for high temperature gas-cooled reactor fuels. Six sets of ZrC coated surrogate microsphere samples, fabricated by the Japan Atomic Energy Agency using the fluidized bed chemical vapor deposition method, were irradiated in the High Flux Isotope Reactor at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. These developmental samples available for the irradiation experiment were in conditions of either as-fabricated coated particles or particles that had been heat-treated to simulate the fuel compacting process. Five sets of samples were composed of nominally stoichiometricmore »« less
