In the Nuclear Safety Research Reactor (NSRR) owned and operated by the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI), extensive experimental studies on the fuel behavior under reactivity-initiated accident (RIA) conditions have been executed since the start of the test program in 1975. Accumulated experimental data were used as the fundamental data base for the safety evaluation guideline concerning reactivity-initiated events (RIEs) in light water cooled nuclear power plants established by the nuclear safety commission in 1984.
