To evaluate the temperature- and burnup-dependent intraparticle CO/CO<SUB>2</SUB> pressures for the design of HTGR low-enriched UO2 coated particles, a thermodynamic model has been developed, based on the equilibrium oxygen partition between UO<SUB>2</SUB>, carbon oxide gases and fission product oxides. The model takes into account a change in kernel stoichiometry due to temperature change and fuel burnup, and involves oxygen release correlations established by referring to measured CO content data in the literature.<BR>The analyses of measured CO contents below 1, 400°C for unirradiated particles show that the 0/U ratio of as-coated particle kernel is 2.00012.001. The 0/U ratio in irra-diated particles has been predicted to range from 2.0001 to 1.999 below 2, 000°C, indicating that the oxygen liberated by fission is consumed nearly all in forming fission product oxides and CO/CO<SUB>2</SUB> gases under normal reactor operating conditions, but at extreme tem-peratures above 2, 000°C the fuel kernel will be reduced to highly hypostoichiometric composition.
