Times Cited Count:4 Percentile:34.56(Nuclear Science & Technology)A computer code for the analysis of the overall irradiation performance of a fast reactor mixed-oxide (MOX) fuel element was coupled with a specialized code for the analysis of fission product cesium behaviors in a MOX fuel element. The coupled code system allowed for the analysis of the radial and axial Cs migrations, the generation of Cs chemical compounds and fuel swelling due to Cs-fuel-reactions in association with the thermal and mechanical behaviors of the fuel element. The coupled code analysis was applied to the irradiation performance of a fast reactor MOX fuel element attaining high burnup for discussion on the axial distribution of Cs, fuel-to-cladding mechanical interaction owing to the Cs-fuel-reactions by comparing the calculated results with post irradiation examinations.

in H
O+H
gas was studied. The pseudo-binary system, Cs
MoO
-MoO
, was thermochemically modeled with Redlich-Kister formulation to form a basis to analyze the high-temperature behavior of Cs
MoO
. The model prediction was compared with the thermogravimetric measurements of Cs
MoO
in dry and humid argon, which revealed that the mass-loss rate was enhanced in the humid atmosphere. Thermochemical model was further applied to predict the partitioning of cesium and molybdenum among gaseous species in the BWR core degradation condition typical of Short-Term Station Blackout.

In order to clarify the re-vaporization behavior of cesium (Cs) chemisorbed compounds which formed onto reactor structural materials during Severe Accident (SA), Cs chemisorbed samples were reheated at 1000C and then microstructural analysis of the chemisorbed samples was conducted. In the case of stainless steel containing Mo, Cs-Mo-O compounds were formed on surface, together with major Cs-Fe-Si-O compounds, and re-vaporized easier than Cs-Fe-Si-O compounds at 1000
