Abstract
In the development of advanced nuclear systems such as accelerator-driven systems (ADS) proposed for high-level radioactive waste transmutation and Pb/LBE cooled fast reactors in the framework of Generation IV initiative, heavy liquid metals such as lead (Pb) or lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) are under evaluation as reactor core coolant and ADS neutron target material. Moreover, heavy liquid metals are also envisaged as target materials for high power neutron spallation sources. Due to this broad field of applications an International Working Group on Heavy Liquid Metal Coolants technology with major emphasis on Pb and LBE has been launched by the OECD/NEA. The objective of this work is to publish properties and experimental results on Pb and LBE in a consistent format within a single document in the form of a handbook in order to provide designers with a single source of qualified properties and data, and to guide the subsequent development efforts. In the handbook preparation about 50 scientists from 11 countries are involved. (author)
