Abstract
► Three-dimensional finite element models are developed. ► The variation of fuel particle-particle distances and the variation of particle-cladding distances are considered. ► The developed virtual temperature method is applied. ► The thermal and mechanical solutions are obtained. ► The effects of the heterogeneous distributions of fuel particles are investigated.
