Modeling of Pore Coarsening in the Rim Region of High Burn-up UO2 Fuel

An understanding of the coarsening process of the large fission gas pores in the high burn-up structure (HBS) of irradiated UO2 fuel is very necessary for analyzing the safety and reliability of fuel rods in a reactor. A numerical model for the description of pore coarsening in the HBS based on the...
