Research work for improving LWR safety. 1991 annual report
Description
The work performed in 1991 for the PNS project centers on various phenomena of severe fuel damage and on selected aspects of a core meltdown accident, relating to aerosol behaviour and filter engineering, and to methods of assessing and minimizing the radiological impacts of a reactor accident. One paper included in this annual report summarizes the evaluation of experiments carried out in 1990 at the Wuerenlingen PROTEUS reactor. The 1991 task programme of the project for the first time included research into extreme load conditions affecting the containment in a core meltdown accident; first results are given of the experiments performed.

Die Schwerpunktthemen beziehen sich auf Phaenomene schwerer Kernschaeden und auf Einzelaspekte zum Kernschmelzunfall. Letztere umfassen die Bereiche Aerosolverhalten und Filtertechnik sowie Methoden zur Abschaetzung und Minimierung der radiologischen Folgen von Reaktorunfaellen. Ein Vorhaben beinhaltet die Auswertung von 1990 am PROTEUS-Reaktor in Wuerenlingen durchgefuehrten Experimenten. Weiterhin werden die ersten Ergebnisse der neu aufgenommenen Untersuchungen zu extremen Containmentbelastungen waehrend eines Kernschmelzunfalls beschrieben. (orig./DG)
