- Summary
- The report summarizes progress under the Liquid-Metal Fast Breeder Reactor (LMFBR) Aerosol Release and Transport Program. The program is designed to investigate radionuclide release and transport from LMFBRs for reactor events of severity up to and including hypothetical core-disruptive accidents (HCDAs). Discussions include (1) progress in the activation of the ORNL capacitor discharge vaporization (CDV) system; (2) determination of size distribution of large CDV droplets; (3) progress in the design of an arc hearth furnace for UO/sub 2/ vaporization; (4) progress in the reactivation of the Nuclear Safety Pilot Plant (NSPP) for sodium burning tests; (5) progress in the design and construction of the Fuel-Aerosol Simulant Test (FAST) facility; and (6) analytical studies of UO/sub 2/ vapor bubble behavior.
