Thermo-mechanical coupling behavior analysis for a U–10Mo/Al monolithic fuel assembly

A typical three-dimensional finite element model for a fuel assembly is established, which is composed of 16 monolithic U–10Mo fuel plates and Al alloy frame. The distribution and evolution results of temperature, displacement and stresses/strains in all the parts are numerically obtained and analyz...
