Abstract

Silicon carbide composite cladding used as the fuel cladding material can improve many performances for a PWR. In order to evaluate the in-pile performance of silicon carbide composite cladding, fuel behavior models of FUPAC were modified. A preliminary analysis was also performed, and the results showed that the core design safety criteria can be satisfied.
