CSNI Joint Interpretation Exercise on fuel-coolant interactions. Results from selected experiments performed in the Thermir facility at AEE Winfrith

Description

This report describes the data from three experiments demonstrating the propagation of thermal interactions in tin and aluminium water mixtures. Transient pressure and cine film data clearly show the propagation of an interaction front through the materials. Detailed information has been provided to permit a full analysis by other groups working in the field and for this reason no such analysis is presented in this report. (author)
