Book excerpt: This report describes detailed auger analysis of previously molten u-zr-o alloy in a section from a candu fuel bundle exposed to high temperature steam in wecan test htbs-001. the objectives of the examination were to determine the material composition and the magnitude of any concentration gradients between the material and the uo2 or the oxidized zr fuel sheath. the composition of the previously molten material was determined to be approximately 24 at percent zr, 8 at percent u and 68 at percent o. although significant concentration gradients of u and zr were measured near the uo2 and zro2 interfaces, the oxygen concentration was determined to be nearly constant throughout the material. the work reported in the documentation was funded by cog - candev program: work package no. 0466.
