چکیده انگلیسی
An understanding of the behavior of fission gas in uranium dioxide (UO2) fuel is necessary for the prediction of the performance of fuel rods under irradiation. A mechanistic model for matrix swelling by the fission gas in LWR UO2 fuel is presented. The model takes into account intragranular and intergranular fission gas bubbles behavior as a function of irradiation time, temperature, fission rate and burn-up. The intragranular bubbles are assumed to be nucleated along the track of fission fragments, which play the dual role of creator and destroyer of intragranular bubbles. The intergranular bubble nuclei is produced until such time that a gas atom is more likely to be captured by an existing nucleus than to meet another gas atom and form a new nucleus. The capability of this model was validated by a comparison with the measured data of fission gas behavior such as intragranular bubble size, bubble density and total fuel swelling. It was found that the calculated intragranular bubble size and density are in reasonable agreement with the measured results in a broad range of average fuel burn-ups 6-83Â GWÂ d/tU. Especially, the model correctly predicts the fuel swelling up to a burn-up of about 70Â GWÂ d/tU.
