KIT – University of the State of Baden-Wuerttemberg and National Laboratory of the Helmholtz Association Institute for Nuclear and Energy Technologies LACOMECO project within the 7 th EU FWP Large Scale Experiments on Core Degradation, Melt Retention and Containment Behaviour A. Miassoedov

2 A. Miassoedov17th International QUENCH Workshop, November 22-24, 2011 KIT Campus North, Karlsruhe, Germany Project details Four KIT large-scale experimental facilities, QUENCH, LIVE, DISCO, and HYKA are offered to external partners from EU within the Transnational Access to Large Research Infrastructures (TALI) Project of the 7 th EU FWP: 1 experiment in QUENCH 1 experiment in LIVE 1 experiment in DISCO 2 experiments in HYKA Investigation of accident scenarios from core degradation to melt formation and relocation in the vessel, melt dispersion to the reactor cavity, and hydrogen related phenomena in severe accidents Activities within the LACOMECO project are strongly coupled to SARNET2

3 A. Miassoedov17th International QUENCH Workshop, November 22-24, 2011 KIT Campus North, Karlsruhe, Germany R&D priorities on severe accident management High priority (further research is considered as necessary) Core coolability during reflood and debris cooling Ex-vessel melt pool configuration during Molten Corium Concrete Interaction (MCCI), ex-vessel corium coolability by top flooding Melt relocation into water, ex-vessel Fuel Coolant Interaction (FCI) Hydrogen mixing and combustion in containment Oxidising impact (Ruthenium oxidising conditions/air ingress for High Burn-up and Mixed Oxide fuel elements) on source term Iodine chemistry in Reactor Coolant System (RCS) and in containment

4 A. Miassoedov17th International QUENCH Workshop, November 22-24, 2011 KIT Campus North, Karlsruhe, Germany R&D priorities on severe accident management Medium priority (these items should be investigated further as already planned in the different research programs): Hydrogen generation during reflood and melt relocation in vessel Corium coolability in lower head Integrity of Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) due to external vessel cooling Direct containment heating (DCH) Low priority (could be closed after the related activities are finished): Corium coolability in core catcher with external cooling Corium release following vessel rupture Crack formation and leakages in concrete containment Aerosol behaviour impact on source term (in steam generator tubes (SGT) and containment cracks) Core reflooding impact on source term
