Macroscopic segregation of molten core and melted components occurs with slow cooling rate in the accident of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plants. The solidification model considering macroscopic segregation of molten core and melted components was developed in order to predict distribution of core elements. In this study, solidification and microscopic segregation were simulated with the Scheil model using thermal properties calculated by Thermo-calc. We estimated segregation behavior of molten core and investigated an influence of cooling conditions on macroscopic segregation.
