BWR Physics and Thermohydraulics Complementary Actions to the BWR R & D Cluster

Fiorini, G. L.; Friesen, E.; Hagen, T. V. D.; Lopez Jimenez, J.; Meloni, P.; Rindelhardt, U.

An overview is given on the EU-IPSS-BWR R&D Cluster project "BWR-Physics and Thermohydraulics Complementary Actions". Six institutes/companies from 5 countries are working on three main topics:

  • Design of innovative components (thermal valves, emergency condensers, isolation condensers and building condensers)
  • Enlarged assesment of the performances of the innovative components
  • Understanding of the physical phenomena which determine the dynamical behaviour of BWRs.
Selected results of the different topics are presented.
  • Lecture (Conference)
    Proceedings of the FISA-97 Symposium on EU Research on Severe Accidents Luxembourg, 17 to 19 November, 1997
  • Contribution to proceedings
    Proceedings of the FISA-97 Symposium on EU Research on Severe Accidents Luxembourg, 17 to 19 November, 1997
