A Simple Modeling for Gas Release During Annealing of Irradiated Nuclear Fuel

arXiv:2402.10519

Abstract

We have developed a gas flow model in the spent nuclear fuel during the annealing. It postulates that the gas release during an isothermal plateau at 1200{\textdegree}C corresponds to the equilibrium between overpressure gas reservoirs in the fuel sample connected to the free surface at atmospheric pressure.
