Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a nuclear fuel, which comprises the following steps: mixing acrylic amide, subunit bisacrylamide, ammonium polyacrylate and deionized water to form premix solution; adding U3O8 powder into a ball mill, then adding the premix solution into the ball mill, and preparing U3O8 slurry of which the solid-phase content is more than or equal to 60vol percent and the viscosity is less than or equal to 1Pa.s through ball-milling dispersion; adding ammonium sulfate and tetramethyl ethylene diamine into the slurry, evenly mixing the slurry and then injecting the slurry into a die, solidifying the slurry, and removing the die to obtain an annular U3O8 raw blank; drying the raw blank at the temperature of between 60 and 80 DEG C and the humidity of between 80 and 95 percent, and un-sticking the raw blank at the temperature of 600 +/- 20 DEG C; and sintering the un-stuck annular U3O8 raw blank in the hydrogen atmosphere at the temperature of 1,730 +/- 10 DEG C to obtain an annular UO2 fuel pellet. The method has the advantages that the relative density of the primary pellet blank reaches 60%-70%, the breaking strength is over 20MPa, and the size-grinding machining allowance of a sintered body is minimized through mechanical machining and precise size control.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a preparation method of nuclear fuel, in particular to a ring-type UO 2 Method for preparing fuel pellets. Background technique [0002] At present, the vast majority of nuclear reactors in the world use UO 2 Fuel power generation, the early fuel used solid UO 2 ; In order to reduce the overall cost of generating electricity in nuclear power plants, one way to improve the economics of operating plants is to increase their power density. UO 2 The conversion of the fuel from the solid type to the ring type has several significant implications for increasing the power density: 1. The use of annular pellets reduces the temperature of the fuel, reduces the differential thermal expansion between the fuel and the cladding, and reduces the ring ridge of the pellets High; 2. Reduced swelling caused by fission products, thereby reducing the interaction between fuel pellets and cladding (PCI effect), the use of annular pellets reduces...
