A method for VVER fuel element cladding reliability prediction

Considering a VVER-1000 fuel assembly averaged fuel element (FE), based on the accepted FE cladding damage limit value, the FE cladding failure probability was determined, thus the possibility of this reliability pre-diction by means of controlling the factors determining the FE properties has been...
