High Performance UO2 Program Quarterly Progress Report Number 2: July-September 1961 (open access)

High Performance UO2 Program Quarterly Progress Report Number 2: July-September 1961

The primary purpose of this joint USAEC-Euratom program is to obtain a better understanding if the maximum achievable operating characteristics of UO2 as a reactor fuel. During the program work will be performed in two areas that have been of concern to reactor core designers for a long time, namely fission gas release and central melting in fuel rods.
