2 FP7 Euratom program European Nuclear Energy Concept Strategic Energy Technology SET Plan Sustainable Nuclear Energy Technology Platform (SNE-TP) European Sustainable Energy Industrial Initiative (ESNII) ESFR and GIF SFR System Nuclear accident research
3 3 main pillars + key cross-cutting issues Maintain safety and competitiveness of today s technologies Fukushima impact: SNETP gives nuclear safety the highest priority in its vision and research agenda ESNII ESNII = European Sustainable Nuclear Industrial Initiative Enlarge the nuclear fission portfolio beyond electricity production (H 2, synthetic fuels, petrochemical/ steelmaking/ paper/ cement industries, seawater desalination, etc.) Develop advanced reactors with closed cycle to enhance sustainability
4 FP7 EURATOM program : Nuclear fission and radiation protection: 118 M JRC nuclear research activities: 233 M Fusion energy research: 2.2 B 1 call each year with ~50 M /y with deadline in April- May In calls, move away from catch-all topic to targeted topics selected from SNE-TP prioritisation list
5 5th Call Fission Call Identifier: FP7-Fission-2011 Publication Date: 20 August 2010 Indicative Budget: M 41 Deadline: 07 April 2011 Management of radioactive waste: Support for future IGD-TP vision/sra Reactor systems: Support for SNE-TP SRA Support for ESNII of SET-Plan Radiation protection: Support for MELODI initiative Human resources, E&T, Infrastructures, International cooperation

14 Evaluation of ESFR for Generation-IV metrics Gen-IV System Evaluation Tool was utilized 26 metrics relate to the Gen-IV goals Sustainability Proliferation resistance Safety and reliability Economics
15 Safety & Reliability Goals Rollup Safety and reliability 0,6 0,5 0,4 0,3 0,2 0,1 The ESFR system has the potential to be highly reliable and achieve forced outage rates as low as LWRs. important reduction in routine radiological exposure to plant personnel in comparison with LWRs. Routine exposures are likely to be lower in fast reactor plants due to greater confinement and lesser degree of activated corrosion products. radiological exposure from accidents is reduced in SFRs, due to unpressurized primary and secondary heat transport systems. Power and temperature coefficients are inherently negative. 0
16 Objectives of the Safety and Operation Project analysis and experiments that support approaches and assess performance of specific safety features, development and verification of computational tools and validation of models employed in safety assessment and facility licensing, and valorisation of reactor operation, from experience and testing in operating SFR plants.
17 Scope of Safety and Operation Project Safety <R&Ds supporting safety assessment> Passive/active safety Severe accident Safety architecture Reactor Operation Technology and Testing (ROTT) <R&Ds through operation and testing of existing reactors> Phenix (France) Monju (Japan) <Feedback of decommissioning of LMFR> Rapsodie, Phenix, Superphenix (France)
18 Utilization of Data from Existing SFRs Data Acquisition and Operational Feedback Experiments and Testing for Design and Safety Tools Validation Demonstration of Advanced Technology Assurance of Passive Safety Response Investigation of Phenomena Axial Fuel Expansion Radial Core Expansion Investigation of Design Features Self Actuated Shutdown System Passive Decay Heat Removal System Techniques for Evaluation of Bounding Events Investigation of Phenomena/Design Features to Prevent and mitigate Severe Accident Progression
19 Reactor Accident Research at ITU Three Mile Island a real accident - an integral test (with incomplete data) Phebus FP test integral test with good data collection but still difficulties in interpretation Corium interaction Thermochemistry/SARNET small scale tests of liquid Zry dissolution of UO 2 fuel Revaporisation testing single effect tests of volatilisation of fission products under different atmospheres
20 Phebus PF program International project lead by the Institut de Protection et Surêté Nucléaire (IPSN now IRSN) and supported by the European Commission. Other non-e U Countries participating (USA, Canada, Japan, Korea and Switzerland). FPT0 1993: (base-line test) degradation of a non-irradiated, 20 x 1m fuel rod bundle FPT1 1996: 18 fuel rods (23 GWd/tU) under a similar steam atmosphere. FPT2 1999: 18 fuel rods (23 GWd/tU) under poor steam atmosphere. FPT3 2000: similar to FPT2 with B4C control rods instead of Ag-In-Cd FPT4 2004: similar to FPT2 with EdF fuel (~33GWd/tU) no re-irradiation ITU contributions: i) sectioning of degraded bundle into 14 x 2cm thick discs ii) microscopic examination and analysis of phases at selected points iii) examination of PTA samples (filters)
21 Applications and future use of this work Compilation of data - often as stability diagrams E-pH (Pourbaix) diagrams, or po 2 -T (Ellingham) diagrams, or composition phase diagrams Derivation of mechanisms and kinetics and deciding thresholds for input into models or codes: this reaction information -----> mechanistic modelling Data correlation -----> can give general information as to reactor accident behaviour -----> empirical modelling example of modelling application - ASTEC suite of codes being developed at Cadarache - trying to generate the missing or replace inadequate data
22 Impact of Fukushima EURATOM research programs Council of the European Union Consensus to have a European approach on safety Conduct comprehensive safety and risk assessment (stress tests) to re-assess safety margins of NPPs in the EU SNETP reaction Solidarity to the people of Japan and support to TEPCO and Japanese authorities in their efforts to limit consequences of accident The GB decided to set up a dedicated TF to assess the lessons from Fukushima to identify adaptations of SNETP s WP FP8 research program with major focus on safety aspects (follow-up of ESFR SOFIA.
