The Core Alloy Flow and Erosion (CAF$'E$) experiments have measured fundamental flow, metallurgical interaction, and freezing behavior of uranium and uranium-iron melts within iron-based trough-shaped flow channels relevant to phenomena that might occur in a hypothetical severe accident in a metal fueled fast reactor. CAF$'E$ simulations conducted so far have engineered interactions of fuel and structural materials over a prototypic range of accident-related melt compositions and temperatures. Real-time measurements included flow-channel temperatures and video recording of the flowing melt. Post-test evaluations compare and contrast flow behaviors, trough damage, and debris distribution and indicate that thermo-chemical interactions play a central role in the interaction of molten fuel debris flowing on cold structure and may inhibit bulk freezing of the debris on the structure.
