Estimation of coping time in pressurized water reactors for accident tolerant fuel claddings
… ATF claddings, monolayer iron-chromium-aluminum (FeCrAl) and Cr-coated Zircaloy, are experimentally investigated. Specifically, this work investigates the high-temperature oxidation characteristics of FeCrAl alloy after exposure to 1000-1400 °C steam for 1 hour. A model for oxidation of FeCrAl …

Application of advanced fuel concepts for use in innovative pressurized water reactors
… For an ATF cladding to replace zirconium alloys, it must be economically viable by having similar fuel cycle costs to today's materials. Four proposed materials are examined: stainless steel (SS), FeCrAl alloy, molybdenum (Mo) and SiC CMC, each having its own development time and costs. …

BULK NANOSTRUCTURED STEELS FOR NUCLEAR REACTOR AND EXTREME ENVIRONMENT APPLICATIONS
<p>"Candidate accident tolerant FeCrAl fuel (ATF) claddings for light water reactors (LWRs) need to be thinner than current Zircaloys owing to higher neutronic penalty, demanding an improvement in strength. Therefore, equal channel angular pressing (ECAP), and high-pressure torsion (HPT) were used …
