A novel approach is presented herein to improve time to onset of natural convection stemming from fuel element porosity during a failure mode of a nuclear reactor.

Current fuel used in nuclear light water reactors that generate energy for the grid use a solid form of uranium that is heated and processed to form pellets.

The need for accurate temperature measurement in critical environments such as nuclear reactors is paramount for safety and efficiency.
