    摘要: A particle bed fuel element designed to accommodate expansion and contraction within the particle fuel bed. Porous inner and outer frits connected together by an end cap at a first end and radially guided by a shoulder at a second end receive fuel particles in the annulus formed therebetween. Compressive devices at each end of the frits and within the fuel bed maintain packing force to prevent looseness during contraction and allow expansion without excessive pressure being placed on the fuel particles. Pairs of beleville springs, wave springs, and pressurized thin-walled metal donuts may be used as the compressive devices.

    摘要: Elongated multi-region LMFBR fuel elements are prepared by preplacing into a container a coarse fraction of material which includes all of the plutonium and a portion of the uranium in the appropriate regions of the fuel element and then infiltrating with vibration simultaneously a fine-sized fraction of depleted uranium-containing microspheres throughout all interstices in the coarse material in a single loading.
