Prediction of sodium boiling and dryout in the fuel subassemblies of a Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactor (LMFBR) under certain accident aconditions is of paramount importance in LMFBR safety. In the present paper, boiling and dryout calculations performed by two computer codes, one-dimensional (1-D), LOOP-1 and two-dimensional (2-D), THORAX are presented and compared with experimental data.
