摘要
Since the production mechanism of the 14C in spherical fuel elements was similar to that of fuel-free graphite spheres, in order to obtain the amount of 14C in fuel elements and graphite spheres of HTR-10, the production mechanism of the 14C in graphite spheres was studied. The production sources of the 14C in graphite spheres and fuel elements were summarized, the amount of 14C in the post-irradiation graphite spheres was calculated, the decomposition techniques of graphite spheres were compared, and experimental methods for decomposing the graphite spheres and preparing the 14C sample were proposed. The results can lay the foundation for further experimental research and provide theoretical calculations for comparison.
