Keywords:sodium-cooled fast recator, core disruptive accident, eutectic reaction, fast reactor safety analysis code

Physical models are developed for the fast recator safety analysis code, SIMMER-III, to simulate the eutectic reaction between stainless steel and boron carbide for assessment of core disruptive accidents of sodium-cooled recators. In this study, numerical simulations were perforemd for a basic experiment on liquefaction of control rod in fast recators, and validity of the physical modelas was examined.
