MYRRHA, A Flexible Fast Spectrum Irradiation Facility. Current Status of Design

Description

R and D program in support of MYRRHA: • Several R&D required for MYRRHA components: - LBE corrosion; - O2 control in LBE; - Irradiated material properties. • Experimental facilities foreseen in the near future in support of MYRRHA at SCK•CEN premacies: - E-SCAPE: Thermal-hydraulic pool facility with 1:6 scale ratio with MYRRHA; - Liliputter: Pump test loop; - COMPLOT: Isothermal hydraulic loop representing one fuel channel/IPS at full high; - PHX mock-up testing concept, fouling, flow-induced vibrations, (SGTR)…; • Experimental facilities foreseen in the near future in support of MYRRHA at SCK•CEN premacies (continued): - Safety/control rod; - Fuel bundle; - Target window; - Component test pool; - Fuel loader; - Robotic arm; • All experiments planned to be finished before 2016
