NEUP CINR-21-24265: Fragmentation and Thermal Energy Transport of Cr-doped Fuels under Transient Conditions

This project will focus on multiple aspects of experimental testing and engineering-scale modeling in understanding thermal energy transport from high burnup, fractured/fragmented ATF fuels, establishing a strong scientific basis to fill a critical knowledge data gap for modeling and simulation of transient fuel performance and safety, such as LOCA, for future integral testing and fuel licensing.
