Effect of compaction pressure on the thermal conductivity of UO2-BeO-Gd2O3 pellets

Effect of compaction pressure on the thermal conductivity of UO2-BeO-Gd2O3 pellets

The (U,Gd)O2 fuels are used in pressurized water reactors (PWR) to control the neutron population in the reactor during the early life with the purpose of extended fuel cycles and higher target burnups. Nevertheless, the incorporation of Gd2O3 in the UO2 fuel decreases the thermal conductivity, lead...
