Experimental Study on Influence of External Pressure Vessel Cooling Parameters on Critical Heat Flux
In-vessel retention (IVR) of molten material, as one of the most important mitigation measures for serious accidents, can effectively prevent the leakage of molten material from the core to the outside of the pressure vessel, resulting in the release of ...

Assessment of thermal safety margins for the IVR-ERVC strategy of the i-SMR using the CINEMA code
In-vessel corium retention with external reactor vessel cooling (IVR-ERVC) is a key severe accident mitigation strategy to prevent lower-head failure and retain fission products inside the reactor vessel. This study assesses the applicability of IVR-ERVC
