Research and development on high burnup HTGR fuels in JAEA
JAEA has been progressing to design HTGR fuels for not only small-type practical HTGRs but also VHTR proposed in GIF which can be utilized for various purposes with high-temperature heat at 750 to 950 °C. To increase economy of these HTGRs, JAEA has been upgrading the design method for the HTGR fue...
