A new non-diffusional gas bubble production route in used nuclear fuel: Implications for fission gas release, cladding corrosion, and next generation fuel design

Journal Article Schwantes, Jon M. ; Bair, Jacob ; Buck, Edgar C. ; ... - Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

The relationship between noble metal phase particles and fission gas bubble production in used nuclear fuel is described. The majority of Te atoms within noble metal phase undergo radioactive decay to form stable Xe within a few hours after particle formation. This results in the production of clusters of Xe atoms contained within the solid metal matrix exhibiting an equivalent gas bubble pressure approaching 1 GPa. These high pressure bubbles are stabilized by the UO2 within the bulk of the fuel. However, when these bubbles form near the fuel / cladding interface, in combination with local and temporal damage causedmore »« less

Distribution of metallic fission-product particles in the cladding liner of spent nuclear fuel

Journal Article Clark, Richard A. ; Conroy, Michele A. ; Lach, Timothy G. ; ... - npj Materials Degradation

We have made observations of noble metal phase fission-product agglomerates and gaseous xenon within the fuel-cladding interaction (FCI) zone of a high-burnup UO₂ fuel. The FCI is the boundary between the UO₂ pellet outer surface and the inner wall of the oxidized Zr-liner/cladding of the fuel rod. These fission-product agglomerates are well known to occur within the spent fuel matrix, and although radionuclides have been reported by others, we reveal aspects of their speciation and morphology. That they occur as discrete particles in the oxidized Zr liner, suggests the occurrence of hitherto unknown processes in the FCI zone during reactormore »« less

Fission gas bubble nucleated cavitational swelling of the alpha-uranium phase of irradiated U-Pu-Zr fuel

Conference Rest, J

Cavitational swelling has been identified as a potential swelling mechanism for the alpha uranium phase of irradiated U-Pu-Zr metal fuels for the Integral Fast Reactor being developed at Argonne National Laboratory. The trends of U-Pu-Zr swelling data prior to fuel cladding contact can be interpreted in terms of unrestrained cavitational driven swelling. It is theorized that the swelling mechanisms at work in the alpha uranium phase can be modeled by single vacancy and single interstitial kinetics with intergranular gas bubbles providing the void nuclei, avoiding the use of complicated defect interaction terms required for the calculation of void nucleation.

FISSION-PRODUCT RELEASE FROM FUEL-ELEMENT CLADDINGS. Quarterly Progress Report for October-December 1963

Technical Report Elleman, T S ; cocks, G G ; Bugl, J ; ...

Postirradiation heating experiments to study Xe/sup 133/ release from foils of iron-20 wt% chromium-alloy specimens impregnated with fission recoils showed that release is time, temperature, and concentration dependent. An activation energy of 36 kcal per mole is associated with an initial rapid or burst release component while a lower activation energy of 20 kcal per mole appears to be associated with a slower long-time release component. The rate of release is concentration dependent in both components. The gas-release behavior is apparently strongly influenced by gas-bubble formation. In postirradiation heating experiments to measure release of Xe/sup 133/ through material unaffected bymore »« less
