This experimental study delves into the impact of inlet injection velocity, inlet subcooling,
and linear power density on the quench front propagation during reflooding in 5x5 rod …

Reflood experiments at elevated pressures for small and medium break loss-of-coolant
accidents were performed to investigate the influence of fuel deformation on the peak …

L'un des accidents de dimensionnement d'un réacteur à eau pressurisée est l'Accident de
