Pre-test analysis of accidental transients for ALFRED SGBT mock-up characterization
In the framework of the Horizon 2020 SESAME project (thermal hydraulics Simulations and Experiments for the Safety Assessment of MEtal cooled reactors), the CIRCE pool facility has been refurbished by ENEA to host HERO test section (Heavy liquid mEtal pRessurized water cOoled tubes) with the aim to test an innovative concept of the steam generator bayonet tubes proposed for ALFRED (Advanced Lead Fast Reactor European Demonstrator) and to provide experimental data for code validation.
