Abstract

1528142 Fuel elements GENERAL ELECTRIC CO 7 Oct 1975 [11 Nov 1974] 41018/75 Heading G6C A nuclear fuel element has a composite cladding of a substrate of zirconium or zirconium alloy having on the inside surface a metal layer at least 0À0002 inch thick of aluminium, chromium, molybdenum, niobium or an alloy thereof. The metal layer of the composite cladding prevents perforations or failures in the cladding substrate from stress corrosion cracking or from fuel pellet-cladding interaction. Methods of manufacturing the composite cladding include electroplating for a metal layer consisting of chromium, bonding an insert tube comprised of one of the above metals (except chromium) or an alloy thereof to a billet of the substrate material extruding the composite followed by a tube reduction process so that a metallurgical bond is established between the metal layer and the substrate, and inserting a close fitting internal hollow sleeve of one of the above metals (except chromium) or an alloy thereof into a billet of the substrate material followed by tube reduction of the assembly, with intermediate anneals if needed, to produce a metallurgical bond between the metal layer and the substrate.
