Advanced Nuclear Fuel (U3Si2) Fabrication and Testing for Implementation into the BISON Fuel Performance Code
CX(s) Applied: B3.6
Date: 11/25/2013
Location(s): South Carolina
Offices(s): Idaho Operations Office
The University of South Carolina proposes to fabricate, test, and model a high uranium density, advanced nuclear fuel (U3Si2). Tasks include fabrications of samples, characterizing to understand their microstructure, creep testing, and design, fabrication, and usage of four-point bend testing fixture and high temperature flexure creep testing rig.
