AGR TRISO Fuel Fission Product Release Data Summary
Knowledge of fission product retention in and release from TRISO fuel under normal and off-normal conditions is needed for reactor safety analyses. This is important for coated-particle fuel used in high-temperature reactors relying on the functional containment strategy. Data on the release and retention of key fission products (e.g., Ag-110m, Cs-134, Eu-154, and Sr-90) in […]
AGR-5/6/7 Irradiation Disassembly and Metrology First Look
The Advanced Gas Reactor (AGR) Fuel Development and Qualification Program was established to perform research and development on tristructural isotropic (TRISO)-coated particle fuel to support deployment of high-temperature gas-cooled reactors (HTGRs), which are graphite-moderated nuclear reactors cooled with helium. This work continues as part of the Advanced Reactor Technologies (ART) TRISO Fuel Program. The overarching […]
