In order to establish a prediction method for the high-temperature oxidation behavior of the new N36 zirconium alloy and allow the autonomous fuel element performance analysis code FORWARD to be applied to the loss of coolant accident(LOCA)condition,the high-temperature steam oxidation test of the new N36 zirconium alloy was carried out in this study.The high-temperature oxidation model of N36 zirconium alloy was developed and validated,and the high-temperature oxidation behavior of N36 zirconium alloy under LOCA condition was predicted using the FORWARD code.The results show that the predicted oxidation weight gain of N36 zirconium alloy is in good agreement with the verification test results,and the predicted oxidation behavior of N36 zirconium alloy at high temperature under LOCA condition is reasonable.Therefore,the model and fuel element performance analysis code developed in this study can be used to predict the high temperature oxidation behavior of the new N36 zirconium alloy.
