Fig.1-32 Calculated phase diagram of temperature vs. oxygen partial pressure (P (O2)) for the UO2-Zr-Fe system
The chemical form of the fuel debris is expected to change depending upon the temperature and P (O2) during the melt progression of the BWR core. Oxygen partial pressure as well as temperature is expected to increase with the melt progression.
