Physics-based modelling and validation of inter-granular helium behaviour in SCIANTIX

Towards grain-scale modelling of the release of radioactive fission gas from oxide fuel. Part II: Coupling SCIANTIX with TRANSURANUS

“…SCIANTIX is suitable for in-pile stationary and transient, and out-of-pile annealing conditions [19,40,41]. At present, SCIANTIX includes rate-theory models for the description of stable and radioactive fission gas (xenon and krypton) [21,42,43] and helium behaviour [44,45]. In addition, the formation of high burn-up structure is considered [12,46].…”
