Analysis of thermal hydraulic behavior of KONVOI PWR during a design extension condition [PDF]
In nuclear power plants the design extension conditions are more complex and severe than those postulated as design basis accidents, therefore, they must be taken into account in the safety analyses.

Quenching Experiments with CrAl-coated Zircaloy Cladding in Reflooding Water Flows
A quenching experiment is performed to investigate the heat transfer characteristics and cooling performance of CrAl-coated Zircaloy (Zr) cladding in a water flow. The CrAl-coated Zr cladding is one of the accident tolerant fuels for light water reactors.
