초록

The thermal conductivity of uranium oxide (UO2) containing pores and grain boundaries is investigatedusing continuum-level simulations based on the finite-difference method in two and three dimensions. Steady-state heat conduction is solved on microstructures generated from the phase-field model of theporous polycrystal to calculate the effective thermal conductivity of the domain. The effects of porosity,pore size, and grain size on the effective thermal conductivity of UO2 are quantified. Using simulationresults, a new empirical model is developed to predict the effective thermal conductivity of porouspolycrystalline UO2 fuel as a function of porosity and grain size

The effects of porosity,pore size, and grain size on the effective thermal conductivity of UO2 are quantified.
