Abstract

The invention discloses MAX-phase-ceramic-matrix dispersion pellet nuclear fuel and a preparation method and application thereof and solves the problem that due to the fact that the heat conductivity of the inert matrix of dispersion nuclear fuel lowers fast under an irradiation condition, accident fault tolerance is lowered, and reactor safety is affected in the prior art. The MAX-phase-ceramic-matrix dispersion pellet nuclear fuel comprises a compact MAX-phase ceramic inert matrix, fuel elements and fuel-free-area protecting layer prepared by MAX-phase ceramic. The preparation method includes: wrapping TRISO particles with MAX-phase ceramic mixed slurry through a spray deposition method to form the compact MAX-phase ceramic inert matrix so as to prepare a fuel-area biscuit, performing compression molding on MAX-phase ceramic mixed powder to obtain a fuel-free-area biscuit, compositing and compressing the fuel-area biscuit and the fuel-free-area biscuit to obtain an IMDP (inert matrix dispersion pellet) biscuit, sintering the IMDP biscuit, and machining the sintered biscuit into a fuel component in a water reactor and a high-temperature gas cooled reactor.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nuclear fuel, and in particular relates to a MAX-phase ceramic matrix dispersion pellet nuclear fuel, its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] Nuclear power is safe, reliable, low-carbon and clean, and will be an important part of the future global energy structure. At present, countries around the world are actively promoting the construction of nuclear power, so as to alleviate the energy crisis and improve the climate and environment. Throughout the history of nuclear energy development in the world, every nuclear accident will directly lead to a revolution in nuclear energy application technology. The same is true of the 311 Fukushima nuclear accident in Japan. Although its causes are complex, including factors such as reactor aging, design defects, and improper emergency response measures, the inherent safety of existing nuclear fuel elements in the face of major acciden...
