Abstract
Results are presented of the calculation of temperature distributions in the cross section of fuel rods with a defective contact bond. The effects of the dimensions and thermal conductivity of the defects, the dimensions of the fuel element, the heat-conduction properties of the fuel element core and cladding, and the rate of cooling are determined.
