Abstract
From joint meeting of the American Nuclear Society and the Atomic lndustrial Forum and Nuclear Energy Exhibition; San Francisco, California, USA (11 Nov 1973). A system which provides a measurement of the amount of gas and free void volume contained in encapsulated fuel elements has been in use at LASL for over a year. A gas sample which can be used for mass analysis is also obtained from this system. Using this equipment, the quantity of gas moles released is obtained to better than plus or minus 2% and the void volume is determined to better than plus or minus (2 cc + 3% of void volume). (auth)
