Properties of Uranium Dioxide-Stainless Steel Dispersion Fuel Plates
Description:
The physical and mechanical properties of GCRE-type fuel elements were determined from room temperature to 1650 deg F. The fuel elements were prepared by cladding Type 318 stainless steel sheet to a core containing 15 to 35 wt.% UO/ sub 2/ in either prealloyed Type 318 stainless steel or elemental iron-18 wt.% chromium-14 wt. % nickel-2.5 wt. % molybdenum. The tensile strength in the direction perpendicular to the rolling plane decreased from 24,600 psi at room temperature to 9,200 psi at 1650 …
