Sparging test
Description
For postulated LMFBR core disruptive accidents, there is a need to evaluate the radiological source term, including releases of solid particles and gases from the boiling sodium pool. In the proposed sparging test, an argon injection into a sodium pool would be used to simulate both boiling conditions and gases released into the pool from the reactor cell floor following the heating of the concrete and chemical interactions. Cerium oxide particles would be used to simulate UO2 particles
