Abstract

Freezing behavior of molten metal during interaction with structure immersed into coolant was experimentally investigated with respect to core disruptive accidents of a liquid metal reactor. Distinct freezing modes were observed in water coolant experiments, whereas only one freezing mode with longer melt penetration was found in air coolant experiments
