Description

The first European in-pile experiment is described. The experiment is designed to study, in the frame of the Post Accident Heat Removal program, the long-term coolability of a liquid-saturated core debris bed with internal heat dissipation. A physical model, along with its mathematical formulation and numerical implementation, is developed and used for the simulation and interpretation of the main stages of the experimental procedure
