Title: Thorium-1.4 wt per cent 235Uranium Metal Fuel Tubes - Fabrication and Irradiation in HWCTR

Abstract

This report describes the joint effort between Nuclear Metals and the Savannah River Laboratory in the development of a coextrusion process for fabrication of three thorium-1.4 wt. per cent 235Uranium alloy fuel tubes with Zircaloy-2 cladding. The report also includes the results of the irradiation of the tubes in the HWCTR.
