In this report, the activities and achievements made by Argonne National Laboratory for the Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation (NEAMS) BISON code metallic fuel validation and verification project in FY2022 are summarized. The FIPD-BISON integration powered metallic fuel low-burnup swelling framework has been enhanced to cover both radial and axial swelling analyses. Axial-dependent as-fabricated fuel radius profiles have been used to improve the accuracy in evaluating radial swelling strain. The simulations of the IFR experiment X447, which was focused on FCCI/CCCI induced cladding degradation and failure, have been converted into a BISON metallic fuel assessment case with detailed documentation, which is also the first FIPD-BISON integration powered assessment case in BISON. A FIPD-BISON integration repository has been established to be an optional submodule of BISON to support FIPD-BISON integration powered assessment cases. Preliminary trials to simulate the in-cell out-of-pile transient experiment have been made after implementing some essential models such as cladding plasticity models and liquid phase penetration models. The initial results are promising and help identify gaps that need to be filled in FY2023 and beyond, to eventually achieve OPTD-BISON integration powered assessment cases.
