Impact of hydrogen on rupture behaviour of Zircaloy-4 nuclear fuel cladding during loss-of-coolant accident: a novel observation of failure at multiple locations
To establish the exclusive role of hydrogen on burst behaviour of Zircaloy-4 during loss-of-coolant accident transients, an extensive single-rod burst tests were conducted on both unirradiated as-received and hydrogenated Zircaloy-4 cladding tubes at different heating rates and internal overpressure...
