Release and deposition of volatile fission products during in-pile severe fuel damage tests

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5387883
Four in-pile Severe Fuel Damage (SFD) tests have been conducted in the Power Burst Facility (PBF) at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL). These tests are part of the Severe Fuel Damage Source Term Research Program sponsored by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission and its international partners. The overall objectives of the SFD tests are to obtain the data necessary to understand fuel behavior, fission product behavior, and hydrogen generation during severe accidents.
