Summary
The axial location of cladding failure following a transient overpower accident is of importance in fast reactor safety studies in that it is a determining factor in the relocation of fuel, and therefore in the possibility of inherent neutronic shutdown of the reactor. In-pile experimental data on the axial location of cladding failure of fuel in bundles of pins is sparse since, in general, the experimental fuel pin bundles are largely destroyed during the in-pile test. The post-test examination work has been completed for TREAT test J1. It was found that damage to the fuel elements during the irradiation was low enough for an accurate observation of the location of cladding failure to be made for each of the seven pins.
