WP4: Steam generator and cooling safety
Objectives T4.1:
Large Scale Experiment in a Heavy Liquid Metal Pool aiming to characterize the Steam Generator Tube Rupture (SGTR) event in a configuration relevant for MYRRHA.
Tube rupture propagation into the HX-tube bundle.
Pressure waves propagation into the HX-tube bundle and damping effect of the HX-shell towards the surrounding structures.
Assessment and performance evaluation of the safety-guard devices aiming to mitigate the effects of the SGTR event.
Steam trapping into the main flow path and dragging towards the core inlet region.
Investigation on the solid impurities formation after the SGTR event, accompanied by a quantitative qualification of filtering performance in the pool.
Objectives T4.2:
Steam bubbles size and release rate by typical cracks
V&V for coarse mesh code (SIMMER)
Objectives T4.3:
The main objective of the task is to provide experimental data on drag coefficient of gas bubbles travelling through liquid LBE.
