GEN-IV Webinar – Development of In-Service Inspection Rules for Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactors Using the System Based Code Concept
This webinar introduces the development of ISI rules for SFRs using the System Based Code (SBC) concept.
Fast Reactors
Workshops discussing fast reactors.
GEN IV Webinar Series: Scale Effects Analysis on the Thermal Hydraulic Behavior of Impinging Jets in Sodium Fast Reactors
Benjamin Jourdy works on a methodology based on bibliography synthesis and experimental results, leading to the conception of a new mock-up dedicated to this study.
GEN IV Webinar Series: ESFR SMART a European Sodium Fast Reactor Concept Including the European Feedback Experience and the New Safety Commitments Following Fukushima Accident
The presentation showed the design proposition for this SFR reactor including the experience feedback from European experience on Phénix, Superphénix, EFR and ASTRID. This design includes all improvements in response to the last safety rules issued after the Fukushima incident. Finally, the first calculations performed for the design validation are also explained with the necessary R&D.
GEN-IV Webinar Series 54: In-Service Inspection and Repair Developments for SFRs and Extension to other Gen-IV Systems
This webinar provided a technical overview of this In-Service Inspection & Repair program that involves specific international collaborations done through GEN-IV mainly. It was presented by Dr. François Baqué who works as a Senior Expert on inspection for fast reactors at CEA Cadarache IRESNE in the Nuclear Technology Department.
