Topics range from fuel types and the irradiation behavior of fuels to cladding and duct materials, fuel element design and modeling, fuel element performance testing and qualification, and the performance of water reactor fuels. Fast reactor fuel elements, research and test reactor fuel elements, and unconventional fuel elements are also covered. This volume consists of 12 chapters and begins with an overviePergamon international library of science, technology, engineering, and social studies.Nuclear fuel elementsNuclear fuel elements.621.48/335Frost Brian R.
