Umeda, Ryota ; Shimoyama, Kazuhito ; Kurihara, Akikazu 

In case of the water leak into sodium in a SG of SFRs due to tube failure, reaction jet is formed by sodium-water reaction with exothermic heat. The reaction jet forms highly alkaline environment with high temperature and high pressure, which cause local thinning of adjacent heat transfer tubes (target wastage). In this report, for the purpose of elucidation of target wastage, the authors developed the experimental apparatus and experimental technique which enable the separate evaluation of wastage influence factors, including temperature, impingement velocity, reagent ratio and so on by using high temperature sodium hydroxide as major reaction product and sodium monoxide as secondary reaction product. In addition, the impingement corrosion experiments have been conducted by using high temperature reagents (NaOH and Na$$_{2}$$O). Based on the corrosive data, authors quantitatively evaluated the influence factors of wastage and formulated the average corrosive equations.
