The Feasibility study on SiC composite fuel cladding for the Accident Tolerant Fuel to the existing PWR plants, 3; Study on fuel behavior during design base accident

Watanabe, Seiichi*; Teshima, Hideyuki*; Furumoto, Kenichiro*; Katayama, Masaaki*; Yamashita, Shinichiro   

Due to its hydrogen-generation rate and reaction heat being lower than those of conventional Zircaloy, SiC is expected to be an appropriate material for accident-tolerant fuels. There are, however, only a few knowledge on behavior of SiC composite cladding under design basis accident condition (DBA). In this study test apparatus were developed for evaluation of behavior of SiC composite cladding and the mock-up tests using SiC cladding were performed under the condition simulated DBA.
