Critical Review of the Thermophysical Properties of Fast‐Reactor Fuel

Abstract

This paper identifies the fuel properties for which more data are needed for fast‐reactor safety analysis. In addition, a brief review is given of current research on the vapor pressure over liquid UO2 and (U, Pu)O2‐x the solid‐solid phase transition in actinide oxides, and the thermal conductivity of molten urania.
