Advanced Nuclear Fuels and Materials provides an overview of the current status and development trends in nuclear fuels and materials used in nuclear energy generation. The book covers different fuel types, such as oxide fuels, metal and alloy fuels, carbide fuels, nitride fuels, composite fuels, and transmutation targets. Other fuels discussed include those used in advanced reactor systems, including high temperature gas cooled reactor fuels, molten salt reactor fuels, sodium cooled fast reactor fuels, lead cooled fast reactor fuels, gas cooled fast reactor fuels, and supercritical water reactor fuels.
Additional sections focus on materials used in nuclear reactors, including structural alloy materials, control rod materials and graphite materials, the numerical simulation of advanced nuclear fuels, and the frontier of nuclear fuels, including new accident tolerant fuels and nano materials used in advanced nuclear energy systems.
