NEUP CINR-23-28959: UN multi-design irradiation campaign: a critical assessment of accelerated burnup and main correlations for mechanistic fuel performance modeling

The objective is to produce robust array of UN irradiated samples to serve post irradiation examination (PIE) and demonstrate the significant performance margins and safety of uranium mononitride (UN). The proposing team, which is comprised of fuels experts from the academic, national laboratory, and industry sectors, aims to probe the impact of fabrication impurities and fuel density as a function of both temperature and burn-up.
