Report of FBR core deformation task force in 1995 fiscal year

not registered

A core deformation in an FBR is a very complex phenomenon in which core physics, thermohydraulics and structural response couples each other. To promote the R& works related to the core deformation phenomenon, a task force composed of twelve sections in the O-arai engineering center was organized to conduct the technical discussion and information exchange of reactor data, demands to out-pile experiments, the development of analysis codes, and so on. This report presents the results of the core deformation task force in the 1995 fiscal year's activity concerning the clarification of research needs and R&D issues.
