Book Synopsis Failure Mechanisms in High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactor Fuel Particles by :
Book excerpt: BISO coated UO2 and ThO2 particles were heated to high temperatures to determine failure mechanisms during hypothetical loss of coolant scenarios. Rapid failure begins when the oxides are reduced to liquid carbides. Several failure mechanisms are applicable, ranging from hole and crack formation in the coatings to catastrophic particle disintegration.
