lure Criteria Figure B-2 Note: The empirical database supporting the BWR fuel cladding failure criteria consists of NSRR tests conducted from initial test temperatures ranging from 20 to 85 EC. Due to temperature and hydrogen solubility effects, application of the BWR cladding failure criteria to higher operating temperatures is conservative. If properly justified, an applicant may adjust the failure criteria to account for hydrogen solubility at initial temperatures above 85 EC. 0 25 50 75 100 125 150 175 200 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 Hydrogen Content (ppm) Fuel Enthalpy Rise (cal/g) Cladding Failure (75, 150) (150, 60) (300, 50)
