Abstract Uranium dioxide (UO2) is widely used in nuclear reactors. This fuel has a low thermal conductivity (TC). Increasing its TC can effectively enhance the safety of reactors and fuel efficiencies. A prevalent approach to increasing the TC of UO2 is to inject a second phase material with a high TC into a UO2 matrix. Due to operational difficulties in the fabrication, deployment, and testing of such composite fuels, measurement data regarding effective thermal conductivity (ETC) of these composite fuels are rarely available, which hinders the development of these composites. To overcome such a barrier, finite element method is utilized to generate massive simulated measurements over the concerned composites. Subsequently, a novel algorithmic method is developed that automatically learns from gathered simulation results to accurately and reliably: 1) predict the ETC of a composite fuel according to its given structural characteristics, and 2) reversely infer the structural characteristics of a composite fuel from its expected ETC. The relative error of forward prediction and inverse design is

通过学习有限元模拟结果双向预测复合燃料的结构特征和有效热导率

摘要 二氧化铀(UO2)广泛用于核反应堆。这种燃料具有低热导率 (TC)。增加其TC可以有效提高反应堆的安全性和燃料效率。增加 UO2 TC 的普遍方法是将具有高 TC 的第二相材料注入 UO2 基质中。由于此类复合燃料在制造、部署和测试方面的操作困难,关于这些复合燃料的有效热导率 (ETC) 的测量数据很少可用,这阻碍了这些复合材料的发展。为了克服这样的障碍,利用有限元方法在相关复合材料上生成大量模拟测量。随后,开发了一种新的算法方法,可以从收集的模拟结果中自动学习,以准确可靠地:1) 根据给定的结构特征预测复合燃料的 ETC,以及 2) 从其预期的 ETC 反向推断复合燃料的结构特征. 正向预测和逆向设计的相对误差为
