“…The mini-plate irradiations of uranium silicide compounds consisted of two phases and are reported in detail by Senn [13], and Snelgrove et al [14]. The initial program was designed to evaluate the primary candidates and included four U 3 Si 2 , 18 U 3 Si and 36 U 3 SiAl mini-plates.…”

“…In U 3 Si 2 , practical fuel plate fabrication considerations [14] limit the volume fraction of fuel that can be added to the dispersant, aluminium. The current limits for U 3 Si 2 lie between 40% and 45% volume fraction, to yield a uranium density of 4.8 g/cm 3 , as approved by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission [17].…”

“…Nessa situação diz-se que o U3Si2 está disperso em matriz de Al. Assim, chega-se à nomenclatura do combustível selecionado para este trabalho: trata-se de siliceto de urânio de baixo enriquecimento e disperso em matriz de alumínio, geralmente denominado LEU U3Si2-Al [23,27,36,37].…”
