Method for evaluating the service life of VVER-1000 fuel-element cladding in different loading regimes

A method for evaluating the service life of VVER-1000 fuel-element cladding in constant and variable fuel load regimes is proposed. It is shown that a comparative assessment of the service life of cladding with different core regimes and parameters is possible on the basis of the energy approach to...

Zusammenfassung:	A method for evaluating the service life of VVER-1000 fuel-element cladding in constant and variable fuel load regimes is proposed. It is shown that a comparative assessment of the service life of cladding with different core regimes and parameters is possible on the basis of the energy approach to creep and destruction of cladding.
