Large Scale Experiments Representing a Containment Natural Circulation Loop during an Accident Scenario

Figure 1

Two-room containment concept as implemented in an EPR™ (a) with prevailing convection loop and corresponding configuration of the PANDA facility (b) during the final state of the experiment HP6_1 and natural circulation loop for the KONVOI type containment (c) for experiment HP6_2. Corresponding areas have the same color. Picture on the left taken from Dimmelmeier et al. [4].
