Numerical simulation of the molten fuel relocation in fuel rod
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2019 Abstract Thermal destruction of fuel rods is one of the most hazardous accidents in nuclear power plants. Fuel melt contains a lot of fission products that can release and start to transport along reactor loops. Relocation of the fuel melt can change the power of reactor due to feedback between density of materials and neutron field in ...
