The new Advanced CANDU Reactor  (ACR) is discussed as a reactor design requiring  related mitigation measures owing to a higher burn  up and its unique refuelling scheme. A consequential  release of iodine by the fuel pellets leads to  stress corrosion induced failures and in extreme  conditions can result in the release of radioactive  contaminates into the atmosphere. This phenomenon is  best exemplified by the disaster at the Fukushima  Daiichi Nuclear Plant in Japan, March 2011, where  melted fuel rods burnt holes in the containment  vessels causing the release of radioactive iodine  over land and the Pacific Ocean. This book develops  a mechanistic kinetic model of the chemistry and  thermodynamics in the fuel-to-sheath gap. The study  also proposes remedies for I-SCC and suggests  possible experimentation. The research in this book  has been referenced in journal articles and  conference proceedings. This book will be  particularly useful as a reference source for  professionals in the nuclear industry and others  studying thermodynamics and kinetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783844384512\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThermodynamic and kinetic study of iodine induced stress corrosion cracking of nuclear fuel rod  sheathing\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783844384512","offer_id":39495969538141,"sku":"9783844384512","price":68.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/f4813993-5e90-46f4-b641-9c10ae0ddba4.jpg?v=1781586509","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/nuclear-fuel-rod-cracking-von-monika-kleczek","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
