Comparison of fission gas swelling models for amorphous u₃si₂ and crystalline uo₂

Theoretical models are used in support of the I2S-LWR (Integral Inherently Safe LWR) project for a direct comparison of fuel swelling and fission gas bubble formation between U₃Si₂ and UO₂ fuels. Uranium silicide is evaluated using a model developed by Dr. J. Rest with the fuel in a amorphous state....
