A concept of steam lift pump type lead-bismuth cooled fast reactor (SLPLFR) is proposed as high temperature and high efficiency Pb-Bi cooled fast reactors. Fe-Al alloy-surface treated steels and ceramics of SiC, Si{sub 3}N{sub 4} and SiC/SiC composites have been chosen as candidates of cladding and structural materials, respectively. A corrosion test plan is proposed, where compatibility of steels applied with Al-Fe alloy-surface treatment and the ceramics will be tested in high temperature Pb-Bi flow. A conceptual design of a test apparatus for the corrosion test is provided. (authors)
