Advanced Nuclear Fuels and Materials 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 alloys, control rod materials, and graphite. 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 are also elaborated. The comprehensive coverage provided by the book makes it an ideal reference for senior undergraduates and graduate students and professional researchers/engineers engaged in nuclear energy, nuclear fuel, or material science.
