RESULTS FROM IRRADIATION OF VENTED GCFR FUEL RODS IN THE GB-9 AND GB-10 CAPSULE EXPERIMENTS

摘要

The exper¬iments were designed to yield basic information on the fission-product release and transport behavior and general rod performance to be expected in the reference GCFR vented-element system. This report describes the design and presents the results obtained from each of these closely related experiments. A discussion of the known uncertainties in the data of both experiments is included so that the information may be applied in the GCFR and other applications.
