Resumption of SFR Overpower Testing and Post-Transient Examination of the THOR-C-2 Irradiation Test

Transient overpower testing for fuel safety research and development has resumed at Idaho National Laboratory. The THOR-C-2 commissioning test has been performed and post-transient examination has been performed revealing the intended failure near the top of the fuel zone. This paves the way for future testing on previously irradiated fuels that will support fuel development […]

The DOE Office of Nuclear Energy Advanced Reactor Technologies (ART) Gas-Cooled Reactor (GCR) program supports research to reduce technical risk and enable deployment of advanced gas-cooled reactors.
