Sodium fire collaborative study progress; CNWG fiscal year 2021

Louie, D. L. Y.*; Aoyagi, Mitsuhiro 

This report discusses the progress on the collaboration between Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) and Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) on the sodium fire research in fiscal year 2021. First, the current sodium pool fire model in MELCOR is discussed. The associated sodium fire input requirements are also presented. The theoretical pool fire model improvement developed at SNL is discussed. A control function model has been developed from this improvement. Then, the validation study of the sodium pool fire model in MELCOR is described. To validate this pool fire model with the enhancement, JAEA F7-1 and F7-2 sodium pool fire experiments are used. The results of the calculation are discussed as well as suggestions for further model improvement. Finally, recommendations are made for new MELCOR simulations for next fiscal year, 2021.
