Demonstration of Boiling Water Reactor Crud Deposition in a Laboratory
Crud (radioactive deposits on nuclear fuel rods) can increase the risk of fuel failures in boiling water nuclear reactors. This study demonstrated the deposition of crud in laboratory-simulated nuclear plant operating conditions, with an objective to better understand the effects of different elements (such as zinc, copper, and silicon) on crud structure and to confirm […]
