In order to calculate the electron energy distribution in the fuel rod gap of a VVER-1000 nuclear reactor,the Fokker-Planck equation(FPE)governing the non-equilibrium behavior of electrons passing through the fuel-rod gap as an absorber has been solved in this paper.Besides,the Monte Carlo Geant4 code was employed to simulate the electron migration in the fuel-rod gap and the energy distribution of electrons was found.As for the results,the accuracy of the FPE was compared to the Geant4 code outcomes and a satisfactory agreement was found.Also,different percentage of the volatile and noble gas fission fragments produced in fission reactions in fuel rod,i.e.Krypton,Xenon,Iodine,Bromine,Rubidium and Cesium were employed so as to investigate their effects on the electrons’ energy distribution.The present results show that most of the electrons in the fuel rod’s gap were within the thermal energy limitation and the tail of the electron energy distribution was far from a Maxwellian distribution.The interesting outcome was that the electron energy distribution is slightly increased due to the accumulation of fission fragments in the gap.It should be noted that solving the FPE for the energy straggling electrons that are penetrating into the fuel-rod gap in the VVER-1000 nuclear reactor has been carried out for the first time using an analytical approach.
