The specific heat capacity was calculated for the materials based on the Neumann-Kopp rule (NKR) for mixtures [19]:
Cp=i=1n?ci.fi
Where, Ci is the specific heat capacity of the component and fi is the mass fraction of that component. The temperature dependent
values of Cp were converted from the molar heat capacity calculated for Mo using the Shomate equation with constants from Chase
[20] and for UO2 from Fink et al.[3]. For comparison, at 298K the Cp for Mo and UO2 are 244.5 and 296.7Jg.K respectively. The
thermal conductivity was normalised to 95%TDUO2 utilising the relationship proposed by Brandt and Neuer [21];
0=p1-(2.6-0.5t)P
where 0 is the thermal conductivity at theoretical density, p is the thermal conductivity at a given porosity, P is the fraction of
porosity in the UO2 and t is T1000, where T is the absolute temperature.
