Analysis of internal fuel motion during PINEX-2 experiment
1978
This paper describes the analyses performed for the PINEX-2 experiment to calculate the ejection of molten fuel into the reflector and fission gas plenum for an internally-vented fuel pin during a simulated 5$/s transient overpower excursion. The LAFM code was used to predict the transient fuel melting and fission gas release, and the HOTPIM and FUMO-T codes were used to predict the fuel ejection. The analytical results were compared with initial data from both the Pinhole-TV Imaging System and the fast-neutron hodoscope, as well as post-transient examinations of the fuel pin.
