Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nuclear fuel pellet preparation, and specifically relates to a method for preparing an annular FCM pellet. Background technique [0002] The nuclear fuel element is the core component of the reactor, and its advancement and safety are the important foundation for the advancement and safety of the reactor. FCM pellets are designed for high burnup uranium used in light water reactors. TRISO particles are encapsulated in a SiC matrix with high overall stability and high thermal conductivity, as well as good compatibility with coolants. Sex. The all-ceramic matrix coating makes the release of fission gas and corrosive fission products little, high fault tolerance in the event of an accident, and safety. [0003] The shape of conventional FCM pellets is solid. During the irradiation process, the center temperature, the temperature difference between the center and the edge, the swelling tendency of the pellets and ...
