NEUP CINR-22-26857: Characterizing fast reactor fuel failure mode through separate effect and prototypic tests

The project consists of conducting separate effect fuel pin failure tests with surrogate fluid and prototypic test with sodium. The outcome of this study will generate an experimental database that will be used to develop mechanistic model and validate the CDAP module of the SAS4A/SASSYS-1 code. Ultimately the quality data can be used to benchmark other fuel codes developed for LMFR application, which are seeking validation for licensing purpose.
