Type of Facility: Corium
DEFOR
Organization:
KTH
Type:
Corium
Description:

Reactor cavity flooding is a cornerstone of severe accident management strategy in Swedish type BWRs.
Type of Facility: Corium
FOREVER
Organization:
KTH
Type:
Corium
Description:

FOREVER program at KTH was concerned with the vessel integrity under the molten corium attack in the reactor lower plenum during a severe accident.
Type of Facility: Thermal Hydraulics
HIPE
Organization:
LUT
Type:
Thermal Hydraulics
Description:

Test facility was designed in such a way that it enables to conduct experiments at any inclination of the flow channel. Test facility will be also used for demonstrational and educational purposes.
Type of Facility: Thermal Hydraulics
PACTEL
Organization:
LUT
Type:
Thermal Hydraulics
Description:

PACTEL is a volumetrically scaled (1: 305) facility including a pressurizer, high and low pressure emergency core cooling systems, and accumulators. The reactor vessel is simulated with a U-tube construction including separate downcomer and core sections.
Type of Facility: Thermal Hydraulics
PCCS
Organization:
LUT
Type:
Thermal Hydraulics
Description:

To study the behavior of the PCCS configuration planned to be used in the ABWR II concept and to gain experimental data for the validation work of MELCOR severe accident code, a scaled down PCCS model was designed and constructed at Lappeenranta University of Technology in Finland in 2012–2013.
Type of Facility: Thermal Hydraulics
PPOOLEX
Organization:
LUT
Type:
Thermal Hydraulics
Description:

The PPOOLEX facility consists of a pressure vessel containing a wet well compartment (condensation pool), dry well compartment, inlet plenum and air/steam line piping.
Type of Facility: Thermal Hydraulics
PWR PACTEL
Organization:
LUT
Type:
Thermal Hydraulics
Description:

The PWR PACTEL facility consists of a reactor pressure vessel model, two loops with vertical steam generators, a pressurizer, and emergency core cooling systems. The new loops and steam generators of EPR style construction enable the PWR and EPR related experimental research.
Type of Facility: Corium
SIMECO
Organization:
KTH
Type:
Corium
Description:

The SIMECO (SImulation of MElt COolability) test facility consists of a slice type vessel, which includes a semi-circular section and a vertical section, representing the lower head of the reactor vessel. The size of the facility is scaled to be 1/8 of prototypic PWR type reactors.
