Assessment of the MARS Code Using the Two-Phase Natural Circulation Experiments at a Core Catcher Test Facility
A core catcher has been developed to maintain the integrity of nuclear reactor containment from molten corium during a severe accident. It uses a two-phase natural circulation for cooling molten corium. Flow in a typical core catcher is unique because (i) it has an inclined cooling channel with down...
