[2E10] Study on Eutectic Melting Behavior of Control Rod Materials in Core Disruptive Accidents of Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactors
(25)Project Overview and Progress until 2020
Keywords:Sodium-cooled fast reactor, Core disruptive accident, Boron carbide, Stainless steel, Eutectic
A research project has been conducting thermophysical property measurement of a eutectic melt, eutectic melting experiments and material analysis, physical model development for the eutectic melting reaction, and reactor application analysis in order to simulate the eutectic melting reaction and relocation behavior of boron carbide as a control rod material and stainless steel during a core disruptive accident in an advanced sodium-cooled fast reactor designed in Japan. This paper describes the project overview and progress until JFY2020.
