In Part I of this paper, the two-temperature homogenized model for the fully ceramic microencapsulated fuel, in which tristructural isotropic particles are randomly dispersed in a fine lattice stochastic structure, was discussed. In this model, the fuel-kernel and silicon carbide matrix temperatures are distinguished. Moreover, the obtained temperature profiles are more realistic than those obtained using other models. Using the temperature-dependent thermal conductivities of uranium nitride and the silicon carbide matrix, temperaturedependent homogenized parameters were obtained. | Steady - and transient state analyses of fully ceramic microencapsulated fuel with randomly dispersed tristructural isotropic particles via two temperature homogenized modeldii: Applications by coupling with coredax
