3. DESCRIPTION

The objective of the Risoe Fission Gas Project was to provide experimental data on fission gas release from high-burnup water reactor fuel. The data were obtained with Zircaloy clad U02 pellet fuel, irradiated in the Halden Reactor to a burnup of 32,000 MWD/Tu (assembly average). Most of the 12 fuel pins used in the Project were submitted to short-term re-irradiations at increased power levels, so-called "bump testing", in the DR 3 test reactor at Risoe. Unbumped and bump-tested fuel pins were examined in the Risoe hot cells, with some additional examination of special samples at the European Institute for Transuranium Elements in Karlsruhe (Germany).
