Study of fission products redeposition by comedie loop in the experimental SILOE reactor

  • 1. CEA Centre d'Etudes Nucleaires de Grenoble, 38 (France)

Description

CEA has a long national and international experience in the field of experimental irradiations. It is operating two experimental reactors OSIRIS (Saclay/France) and SILOE (Grenoble/France), in which a large number of devices and loops about the different reactors systems used through the world are irradiated. For HTGR Studies, a COMEDIE helium loop has been built to study the release and deposition of fission products from the fuel. A modification of this loop, to be able to do in situ blow down tests to study fission products lift off, is in progress. Around the loop itself, continuous fission gas analysis is feasible in a special equipped Fission Gas Analysis Laboratory. Post-Irradiation Examinations can be conducted in hot cells, located close to the reactor itself. (author)
