Popis: A model of gas release from molten nuclear fuel has been developed taking into account motion of bubbles and different physical processes leading to the coagulation of bubbles. It is shown that the fuel swelling and gas release dynamics are governed by the external pressure, geometry of the melt, initial gas concentration and properties of the liquid materials.
