Proc. ASME. ICONE29, Volume 4: SMRs, Advanced Reactors, and Fusion, V004T04A019, August 8–12, 2022
Paper No: ICONE29-91812
... Abstract A new subassembly-type passive reactor shutdown device is proposed to expand the diversity and robustness of core disruptive accident prevention measures for sodium-cooled fast reactors (SFRs). The device contains pins with a fuel material that is in a solid state during normal...

Paper No: ICONE28-64099
... the diversity and robustness of prevention measures for core disruptive accidents in sodium-cooled fast reactors. The proposed device contains pins with a fuel material that is kept in the solid state during normal operation but melts into the liquid when its temperature exceeds a prescribed value under...

..., molten core material is an important issue to achieve in-vessel approximately 9 kg of molten alumina was discharged through a retention during a core disruptive accident (CDA) in sodium- duct of 40 mm in inner diameter into a test vessel (200 mm in cooled fast reactors (SFRs)[1]. During a CDA in SFRs...

Paper No: ICONE28-63301
...Abstract Abstract One of the key issues in a core disruptive accident (CDA) evaluation in sodium-cooled fast reactors is eutectic reactions between boron carbide (B 4 C) and stainless steel (SS) as well as its relocation. Such behaviors have never been simulated in CDA numerical analyses...

... molten fuel pool accompanied by re-criticality in the event of a core disruptive accident (CDA). It is important to ensure in-vessel retention that keeps and confines damaged core material in the reactor vessel even if the CDA occurs. CDA scenario initiated by Unprotected Loss Of Flow (ULOF), which...
