Abstract

The reflooding investigations of large-scale model fuel assemblies and sphere beds under Design Basis Accident and Beyond Design Accident of Light Water Reactors WWER and PWR are presented. The generalizing correlation on the quench front velocity for model fuel rod assemblies and sphere beds was developed on the base of heat balance and Leidenfrost temperature correlation. It is shown that reflooding duration calculation results of model fuel assemblies and sphere beds are in good agreement with the experimental data.
