Summary:

Two-dimensional boiling effects may significantly influence the course of LOPI and LSHRS hypothetical accident sequences. Boiling models are being developed at ANL and MIT to investigate conditions under which these two-dimensional effects are important. A thermocouple correlation technique has been developed at ORNL to track the void growth in sodium tests run in the Thermal-Hydraulic Out-of-Reactor Safety (THORS) facility. This information can be used to aid in the development and verification of the constitutive relations required by the multi-dimensional codes.
