Phase-field modeling of temperature gradient driven pore migration coupling with thermal conduction

Journal Article Zhang, Liangzhe ; Tonks, Michael R ; Millett, Paul C ; ... - Computational Materials Science

Pore migration in a temperature gradient (Soret effect) is investigated by a phase-field model coupled with a heat transfer calculation. Pore migration is observed towards the high temperature domain with velocities that agree with analytical solution. Due to the low thermal conductivity of the pores, the temperature gradient across individual pores is increased, which in turn, accelerates the pore migration. In particular, for pores filled with xenon and helium, the pore velocities are increased by a factor of 2.2 and 2.1, respectively. A quantitative equation is then derived to predict the influence of the low thermal conductivity of pores.

Simulation of grain growth and pore migration in a thermal gradient

Journal Article Tikare, V ; Holm, E A - Journal of the American Ceramic Society

The Potts Monte Carlo simulation was used to simulate microstructural evolution in uranium dioxide fuel rods. During service, grain growth, pore migration, and thermal segregation of the pores and UO{sub 2} occur in the rods in a thermal gradient. In this investigation, the authors developed a model which simulates simultaneous grain growth, pore migration, and thermal segregation of the pores and UO{sub 2} in a temperature gradient. Grain growth in a thermal gradient was simulated using the Monte Carlo Potts model technique developed by Anderson, Srolovitz, and co-workers. Pore migration was simulated using conserved dynamics with minimum-energy exchanges at amore »« less

Pore and grain boundary migration under a temperature gradient: A phase-field model study

Journal Article Biner, S. B. - Modelling and Simulation in Materials Science and Engineering

In this study, the collective migration behavior of pores and grain boundaries under a temperature gradient is studied for simple single crystal, bi-crystal and polycrystal configurations with a phase-field model formulism. For simulation of the microstructure of solids, composed of pores and grain boundaries, the results indicate that not only the volume fraction of pores, but also its spatial partitioning between the grain boundary junctions and the grain boundary segments appears to be important. In addition to various physical properties, the evolution kinetics, under given temperature gradients, will be strongly influenced with the initial morphology of a poly-crystalline microstructure.

A phase field study of the thermal migration of gas bubbles in UO₂ nuclear fuel under temperature gradient

Journal Article Wang, Yafeng ; Xiao, Zhihua ; Hu, Shenyang ; ... - Computational Materials Science

Phase field models are developed to study the gas bubble migration in uranium dioxide nuclear fuel in which a large temperature gradient exists during the operation. In this work, thermal diffusion mechanism for nanosized gas bubbles and vapor transport process for micron-sized gas bubbles are considered, respectively. In both cases, gas bubbles migrate to the high-temperature area. Due to the velocity difference between leading and trailing edges of the gas bubbles, nanosized gas bubbles are elongated along the temperature gradient direction when thermal diffusion is dominated. Micron-sized gas bubbles are either compressed along temperature gradient direction to form lenticular shapemore »« less
