SAS4A/SASSYS-1 Validation with FFTF Tests
- Argonne National Laboratory (ANL), Argonne, IL (United States)
The FFTF liquid sodium cooled test reactor was built to assist the development and testing of advanced fuels and material for fast reactors. The goals of the FFTF Passive Safety Testing program included confirming the safety margins of FFTF as a liquid metal reactor, providing data for computer code validation, and demonstrating the inherent and passive safety benefits of its specific design features. The program included thirteen unprotected loss of flow without scram tests. In preparation for the Passive Safety Testing program, a series of individual reactivity feedback tests were performed which were designed to simulate and validate specific features and reactivity feedbacks of the FFTF core.
