Number of employees
Researcher 1 person
Recruitment Field
Research Theme:
Research on mechanistic modeling in degradation progression
(Summary)
Regarding degradation processes during sever accident, early phase(until initiation of large fuel relocation), transient phase(fuel relocation) and late phase(relocation and remelting in lower head) are largely categolied. Knowledge is still lack in BWRs. Main lack understanding in early and transient phases is 1) control rod degradation and 2) interaction between channel box and fuel rod, and that in late phase is 3) solidification of corium. The researcher is expected to conduct experimental test in several possible situations (ex. steam starvation) and develop mechanistic models for degradation process.
