AbstractAbstract
[en] This contribution deals with the meltdown of fuel rods and the behaviour of the melt formed by the core and structural materials inside the pressure vessel. Both series of experiments are done in inert and oxidizing atmosphere. The meltdown is strongly influenced by the interaction between pellet, can and spacer and by the degree of oxidation. Depending on the concentration of steel and the degree of oxidation, the core and structural components form three different melts: one homogeneous metallic or one homogeneous oxide melt or two immiscible melts (one metallic and the other oxidic)
