PIRTs have been developed and are reported for the 3 sequence event families of SFR severe accidents. For ULOF, there are 13 phenomena ranked with high importance and large uncertainty. Two PIRTs for primary phase of UTOP have been developed based on those of ULOF. Two phenomena with high importance and large uncertainty both in FRN and JPN ranking are highlighted. For USAF PIRT, they are eight phenomena ranked important and uncertain by both sides related to heat transfer coefficient, chunk relocation in the molten pool of the initiating SA and to thermomechanical loading on the hexcan of the initiating SA. These phenomena are recognized to deserve priority study. The event progression regarding FP transport focusing on phenomena of ULOF is investigated. Seven phenomenological phases were identified along with the accident sequences and of their events progression. The summary of the elementary phenomena on this PIRT, and the vote for the table are foreseen in the future study.
