We have prepared what we call a bonded segmented fuel element. This fuel element has characteristics which make it an attractive prospect for high specific power operation at relatively low uranium temperatures. The fuel slug is made up of six longitudinal segments; each segment being bonded to the aluminum webbing and tubing that encases it. The pertinent information for this irradiation is summarized along with fabrication details and hazards, thermal aspects and calculations, and figures.
