Research on advanced fuel element for upgrading safety of high temperature gas-cooled reactors, 1; Outlines

Tachibana, Yukio ; Ohira, Koichi*; Kuroda, Masatoshi*

For the purpose of upgrading safety of High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor (HTGR), research on advanced fuel element was conducted with cooperation of Nuclear Fuel Industries and Kumamoto University. The advanced fuel element contains SiC as the matrix material and oxidation resistance is highly improved so that shape and integrity of the fuel element should be maintained even when large unexpected amount of air enters into the core in the air ingress (pipe rupture) accident which is a typical event for the HTGR. This presentation shows outlines of the contracted research from FY2014 to 2016.
