36. Xiaoxing Liu, Koji Morita, Shuai Zhang, A stable moving particle semi-implicit method with renormalized Laplacian model improved for incompressible free-surface flows, Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 10.1016/j.cma.2019.07.019, 356, 199-219, 2019.11, We present a stable and accurate moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) for free-surface flows. For simulating free-surface flows, previous formulations using renormalized procedure is only applicable to interior particles. Poor accuracy of the free-surface particle in turn contaminate the overall solution accuracy. In this study, dummy particle is introduced to stabilize the renormalized Laplacian model on free surface and to enforce the free-surface condition. The proposed renormalized Laplacian model enables accurate pressure calculation for both internal and free-surface particles. Modification also includes a modified gradient model in which linear consistency is guaranteed and stability is enhanced by introducing dummy particle. The proposed MPS scheme provides a more accurate and stable simulation of incompressible free surface flows. Several two-dimensional numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the enhanced performance of the proposed MPS method..
37. Kuniyoshi Takamatsu, Tatsuya Matsumoto, Wei Liu, Koji Morita, Comparative methodology between actual RCCS and downscaled heat-removal test facility, Annals of Nuclear Energy, 10.1016/j.anucene.2019.07.025, 133, 830-836, 2019.11, Previously, a reactor cavity cooling system (RCCS) has been reported with passive safety features comprising of two continuous closed regions, namely an ex-reactor pressure vessel region and cooling region with a heat-transfer surface to ambient air. The novel shape of the RCCS allows it to efficiently remove heat released from the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) via thermal radiation and natural convection. The RCCS design significantly reduces the possibility of losing the heat sink for decay heat-removal during nuclear accidents including a station blackout by employing air as a working fluid and ambient air as ultimate heat sink. RCCS has the potential to stably and passively remove heat released from the RPV and decay heat following a reactor shutdown. The RCCS achieved a heat-removal rate of approximately 3 kW/m2. On the contrary, the heat fluxes from the RPV surface of the high temperature engineering test reactor and commercial high temperature gas-cooled reactors are 1.23–2.46 kW/m2 and approximately 3.0 kW/m2, respectively. In the previous report, the authors changed the adiabatic boundary conditions and considered the heat dissipation effect from the RPV region to ground through the RCCS wall via heat conduction; therefore, the authors could improve the system's heat-removal capability to increase its thermal reactor power level. Moreover, considering the possibilities for doubling the heat-transfer areas and increasing the emissivities, heat flux removed by the RCCS could potentially reach 7.0 kW/m2. Herein, the authors conduct a comparative methodology between an actual RCCS and a downscaled heat-removal test facility..
38. Xiaoxing Liu, Koji Morita, Shuai Zhang, A conservative finite volume-particle hybrid method for simulation of incompressible interfacial flow, Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 10.1016/j.cma.2019.06.035, 355, 840-859, 2019.10, Coupling the finite volume method (FVM) and the moving-particle semi-implicit (MPS) method, a conservative hybrid method is proposed for simulation of incompressible interfacial flow. In this hybrid method, bulk flow is resolved using the multi-moment constrained interpolation profile (CIP) FVM while the interface region is rendered using moving particles calculated by several enhanced MPS schemes. A new boundary condition is developed for particles located on the boundary of the interface. Numerical particles in the MPS method are used to determine the density of each mesh cell and the conservation of mass is guaranteed by a volume-fraction remedy procedure. The approach allows accurate interface tracking without diminishing numerical efficiency. Several benchmark simulations are conducted to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed hybrid method..

41. Xiaoxing Liu, Koji Morita, Shuai Zhang, An ALE pairwise-relaxing meshless method for compressible flows, Journal of Computational Physics, 10.1016/j.jcp.2019.02.037, 387, 1-13, 2019.06, In this paper, we present a pairwise-relaxing meshless (PRM) method for solving the Euler equations of compressible flows within the Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) framework. Derived from the moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) method and the finite volume particle (FVP) method, the PRM approximates the derivatives from the value defined at the midpoint of each interacting particle pairs through a kernel-based formulation. Pairwise-relaxing constants are introduced to the kernels to provide degree of freedom to enforce the Taylor-series consistency condition while mass, momentum and energy are conserved exactly. An upwind high-order reconstruction scheme via a corrective procedure and variable cut-off radius is also developed for this PRM method. The HLLC approximate Riemann solver is adopted to solve Riemann problem. One and two-dimensional numerical tests are presented to demonstrate the performance of the PRM method..
42. Xiaoxing Liu, Koji Morita, Shuai Zhang, A pairwise-relaxing incompressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics scheme, Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 10.1016/j.cma.2019.01.029, 348, 297-312, 2019.05, We present a formulation of incompressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics (ISPH) method that utilizes pairwise-relaxing kernel to achieve approximately first-order consistency. Previous high-order formulations by using reproduced and corrected kernel function have had difficulties in ensuring momentum conservation. In the new scheme, relaxing constants for each kernel function are determined pair-wisely throughout the entire calculation domain by enforcing the Taylor-series consistency condition. We call this modified ISPH method Pairwise-Relaxing ISPH, or PR-ISPH. PR-ISPH retains high-order accuracy for non-uniform particle distributions. The spatial symmetry of the kernel function is kept in PR-ISPH thus momentum is strictly conserved. Several two-dimensional benchmark calculations are conducted to demonstrate the accuracy as well as the conservation property of the PR-ISPH..
43. Le Hoang Sang Phan, Phi Manh Ngo, Ryo Miura, Yusuke Tasaki, Tatsuya Matsumoto, Wei Liu, Koji Morita, Self-leveling behavior of mixed solid particles in cylindrical bed using gas-injection method, Journal of nuclear science and technology, 10.1080/00223131.2018.1531077, 56, 1, 111-122, 2019.01, The self-leveling of debris beds is a critical phenomenon to be clarified in the safety assessment of material relocation and decay heat-removal phases in postulated core-disruptive accidents in sodium-cooled fast reactors. In recent years, we have conducted several series of experiments using simulant materials to develop an experimental database of self-leveling processes in particle beds and proposed an empirical model to predict the bed height during self-leveling. The obtained experimental knowledge and proposed model applicability have been limited to homogeneous particles, although fragmented core debris could be mainly mixtures of fuel and stainless-steel particles with a size distribution. We conducted self-leveling experiments using mixtures of solid particles with different properties to understand the characteristics of self-leveling phenomena under a wider range of conditions. An improved empirical model for transient bed height was developed to correlate the experimental data under various conditions of particle mixtures. The developed model reproduces the self-leveling development of mixed particle beds and those of the homogeneous particle reasonably..
44. Kuniyoshi Takamatsu, Tatsuya Matsumoto, Wei Liu, Koji Morita, Improvement of heat-removal capability using heat conduction on a novel reactor cavity cooling system (RCCS) design with passive safety features through radiation and natural convection, Annals of Nuclear Energy, 10.1016/j.anucene.2018.08.047, 122, 201-206, 2018.12, A previously-reported concept of reactor cavity cooling system (RCCS) with passive safety features consists of two continuous closed regions: an ex-reactor pressure vessel region and a cooling region with a heat-transfer surface to ambient air. The RCCS uses a novel shape to efficiently remove the heat released from the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) through thermal radiation and natural convection. Employing air as a working fluid and ambient air as an ultimate heat sink, the novel RCCS design strongly reduces the possibility of losing the heat sink for decay-heat-removal during nuclear accidents including a station blackout. The RCCS could stably and passively remove the heat released from the RPV and the decay heat after reactor shutdown. The previously-reported heat-removal rate of the RCCS was approximately 3 (kW/m2). The heat flux from the RPV surface of the High Temperature engineering Test Reactor (HTTR) is almost in the same range; 1.23–2.46 (kW/m2). In this paper, the authors address an improvement of heat-removal capability by considering potential of heat leakage due to heat conduction through the RCCS wall aimed at increasing a thermal reactor power level. Under the assumption of doubling the RCCS wall heat transfer area, a heat-flux removed by the RCCS could be doubled, such as approximately 6.2 (kW/m2)..

50. Xiaoxing Liu, Ryusei Ogawa, Masatsugu Kato, Koji Morita, Shuai Zhang, Accuracy and stability enhancements in the incompressible finite-volume-particle method for multiphase flow simulations, Computer Physics Communications, 10.1016/j.cpc.2018.04.020, 230, 59-69, 2018.09, For the simulation of multiphase flows, an incompressible finite volume particle (IFVP) method is proposed that offers enhanced accuracy and stability. A high-order multiphase Laplacian operator is derived by combining the gradient model and divergence model. To produce enhanced accuracy, neighboring dummy particle is introduced in each dimension of the calculation and used for the discretization of the gradient model. The error-compensating terms produced by introducing these dummy particles assist in the higher-order calculations of the gradient operator. Consequently, accuracy of the Laplacian operator is enhanced consistently by these error-compensating terms. Compared to the single dummy particle introduced for two-dimensional calculations in our previous work (Liu et al., 0000), the proposed high-order scheme is more generalized and can be applied in the calculation of arbitrary dimensions. This enhanced multiphase scheme provides accurate and stable calculations of multiphase flows characterized by high density ratios. An advantage of this scheme is that the separation of two liquids of similar density is easily handled as well. Results of several numerical simulations are given to demonstrate its validity and enhanced performance..

Xiaoxing Liu, Koji Morita, Shuai Zhang, An advanced moving particle semi-implicit method for accurate and stable simulation of incompressible flows, Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 10.1016/j.cma.2018.05.005, 339, 467-487, 2018.09, An advanced moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) method for the simulation of incompressible flows that provides enhanced accuracy and stability is proposed. Up to now, existing high-order accurate MPS pressure gradient schemes suffer from instability produced by attractive pressure gradient while some stabilized pressure gradient schemes have the shortcomings of large discretization error. We propose a high-order stabilized gradient model in which first-order Taylor-series consistency is ensured and stability is guaranteed by purely repulsive pressure gradient. Laplacian model and divergence model are modified and enable accurate and stable solution for the pressure Poisson equation (PPE). The proposed MPS scheme provides a more accurate and stable simulation of incompressible flows. Several two-dimensional numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the enhanced performance of the proposed MPS method..
52. Md Abdur Rob Sheikh, Eikaku Son, Motoki Kamiyama, Tohru Morioka, Tatsuya Matsumoto, Koji Morita, Kenichi Matsuba, Kenji Kamiyama, Tohru Suzuki, Sedimentation behavior of mixed solid particles, journal of nuclear science and technology, 10.1080/00223131.2017.1419888, 55, 6, 623-633, 2018.06, During the material relocation phase of core-disruptive accidents in sodium-cooled fast reactors, the sedimentation behavior of fragmented debris discharged from the reactor core into the lower plenum region leading to a debris-bed formation is crucial in regard to in-vessel retention and safety concerns. The height of the beds formed may influence both the cooling of the bed from the decay heat in the fuel and the neutronic characteristics. To develop an experimental database of bed formation behavior, a series of experiments using simulant materials, namely, Al2O3, ZrO2, and stainless steel, were performed under gravity-driven discharge of solid particles from a nozzle into a quiescent cylindrical water pool. The bed height was measured for particles of different size, density, and sphericity, and an injection nozzle with varying diameter, injection velocity, and injection height. From these experiments, an empirical correlation was established to predict the bed height for both homogeneous and mixed particles for the different properties. This correlation reproduces reasonably well the experimental trend in bed height with critical factors, which were identified in this and previous experiments..

Hirotaka Tagami, Songbai Cheng, Yoshiharu Tobita, Koji Morita, Model for particle behavior in debris bed, Nuclear Engineering and Design, 10.1016/j.nucengdes.2017.12.029, 328, 95-106, 2018.03, In analyzing the safety of core disruptive accidents in Sodium-cooled Fast Reactors (SFRs), it is important to evaluate whether the decay heat of debris bed can be removed. The decay heat removability changes depending on the shape of debris bed, which would be deformed by coolant vapor with time. In the present paper, a new model was developed to analyze debris bed behavior with SIMMER, which is a safety analysis code for SFRs. In the new model, the effects of inter-particle collisions and contacts are modeled as inter-particle interaction. Test simulation results show the roles of physical properties in the new model on the dense particle behavior. Assessment results of proposed model based on model experiments indicate that the new model is capable of describing the transient of the shape of the particle bed in the liquid driven by the gas phase. Considering the fact that the process of leveling behavior in model experiments is common for the debris bed in SFRs, the new model can be employed as an analysis tool for debris bed behavior..

Tobita, Experimental study on debris bed characteristics for the sedimentation behavior of solid particles used as simulant debris, Annals of Nuclear Energy, 10.1016/j.anucene.2017.09.011, 111, 474-486, 2018.01, Particle bed characteristics are experimentally investigated for the sedimentation and subsequent bed formation of solid particles, related to the coolability aspects in core–disruptive accidents. Presently a series of experiments with gravity driven discharge of solid particles into a quiescent water pool was performed to evaluate bed formation characteristic in the course of particle sedimentation. We evaluated the effects of the crucial factors: nozzle diameter, particle density, particle diameter and nozzle height on four key quantitative parameters of bed shape: mound dimple area, mound dimple volume, repose angle and mound height to illustrate the role of the crucial factors on forming the particle bed shape. The investigated crucial factors exhibit a significant role that diversifies the particle bed formation process. Based on the data obtained in the experimental observations, we developed an empirical correlation to compare the predicted results with the experimental bed heights. The proposed empirical correlation can reasonably demonstrate the general trend of the experimental bed height. This correlation could be useful to assess the particle bed elevation, and to identify the governing parameters..

Werner Maschek, Rui Li, Claudia Matzerath Boccaccini, Fabrizio Gabrielli, Koji Morita, Investigation on upper bounds of recriticality energetics of hypothetical core disruptive accidents in sodium cooled fast reactors, Nuclear Engineering and Design, 10.1016/j.nucengdes.2017.11.002, 326, 392-402, 2018.01, One key research goal for GEN-IV systems is an enhanced safety compared to the former Sodium Cooled Fast Reactor concepts. A key issue is built-in safety and the capability to prevent accidents and to demonstrate that their consequences do not violate aimed-at safety criteria. From the beginning of SFR development the Core Disruptive Accident (CDA) has played an outstanding role in the safety assessment. Under core disruptive accident conditions with core melting the fuel might compact, prompt criticality might be achieved and a severe nuclear power excursion with mechanical energy release might be the consequence. Numerous safety analyses accompanied the development and the licensing procedures of past fast reactor projects. A central issue of all analyses was the assessment of a realistic upper bound of energetics especially related to recriticalities in disrupted core configurations. Striving for an even higher safety level for next generation reactors a new strategy focused on the development and introduction of preventive and mitigative measures both to reduce the chance for a severe accident development and to mitigate its energetics. For assessing the effectiveness of these measures the knowledge of the CDA behavior is essential. In this context and on basis of new code developments, new experimental insights and extended studies for many reactor types of different power classes over the recent years, the issue of a realistic upper bound of energetics of the late core melt phases is again of relevance. Of special interest is the identification of natural and intrinsic mechanisms that limit the escalation of energetics. The current paper deals with these issues and tries to add supportive facts on the limits of CDA energetics. The evaluation of results of mechanistic SIMMER-II and SIMMER-III/IV analyses performed for various core designs and power classes and specific model case studies in 2D and 3D geometry indeed supports the idea of a limit of recriticality energetics. Intrinsic mechanisms exist, which limit the escalation energetics even in case of a strong blockage confinement suppressing any fuel discharge and allowing on-going sloshing recriticalities. In the light of the available information and taking into account relevant scientific publications and studies by the international community on the subject, one could conclude that an upper bound for energetics in the range given in the paper can be deduced..

Zhang, Enhancement of the accuracy of the finite volume particle method for the simulation of incompressible flows, International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, 10.1002/fld.4404, 85, 12, 712-726, 2017.12, A finite volume particle (FVP) method for simulation of incompressible flows that provides enhanced accuracy is proposed. In this enhanced FVP method, a dummy neighbor particle is introduced for each particle in the calculation and used for the discretization of the gradient model and Laplacian model. The error-compensating term produced by introducing the dummy neighbor particle enables higher order terms to be calculated. The proposed gradient model and Laplacian model are applied in both pressure and pressure gradient calculations. This enhanced FVP scheme provides more accurate simulations of incompressible flows. Several 2-dimensional numerical simulations are given to confirm its enhanced performance..

Liancheng Guo, Koji Morita, Yoshiharu Tobita, Numerical simulations on self-leveling behaviors with cylindrical debris bed, Nuclear Engineering and Design, 10.1016/j.nucengdes.2017.02.024, 315, 61-68, 2017.04, The postulated core disruptive accidents (CDAs) are regarded as particular difficulties in the safety analysis of liquid-metal fast reactors (LMFRs). In the CDAs, core debris may settle on the core-support structure and form conic bed mounds. Then debris bed can be levelled by the heat convection and vaporization of surrounding coolant sodium, which is named “self-leveling behavior”. The self-leveling behavior is a crucial issue in the safety analysis, due to its significant effect on the relocation of molten core and heat-removal capability of the debris bed. Considering its complicate multiphase mechanism, a comprehensive computational tool is needed to reasonably simulate transient particle behavior as well as thermal-hydraulic phenomenon of surrounding fluid phases. The SIMMER program is a successful computer code initially developed as an advanced tool for CDA analysis of LMFRs. It is a multi-velocity-field, multiphase, multicomponent, Eulerian, fluid dynamics code coupled with a fuel-pin model and a space- and energy-dependent neutron kinetics model. Until now, the code has been successfully applied in numerical simulations for reproducing key thermal-hydraulic phenomena involved in CDAs as well as performing reactor safety assessment. However, strong interactions between massive solid particles as well as particle characteristics in multiphase flows were not taken into consideration in its fluid-dynamics models. To solve this problem, a new method is developed by combining the discrete element method (DEM) with the multi-fluid models of SIMMER code to reasonably simulate the particle behaviors as well as the thermal-hydraulic phenomena of multiphase fluid flows. In this paper, the coupling method is validated by performing numerical simulations on a series of experiments with cylindrical particle bed in 3D situation. Based on various experimental conditions, Reasonable agreement between simulation results and corresponding experimental data can demonstrate the applicability of the method in reproducing the self-leveling behavior of debris bed. Sensitivity analysis on some model parameters of DEM is also performed to assess their impacts in the simulation. It is expected that the present method can be used as a computational tool to estimate self-leveling process of debris beds as well as the following behaviors in real reactor environment..

In particle method, Shirakawa et. al. had been proposed a correction term on modelling a buoyancy force to show the phenomena of Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI) in the simulation. By adjust a specific value of correction term for a specific mass density ratio, Rayleigh-Taylor instability phenomena had been observed on MPS method. Later, the phenomena is also observed on FVP methods using the same modelling. In this study, several mass density ratio and viscosity ratio of liquids have been proposed as parametric simulation to observe Rayleigh-Taylor instability. The results show the correlations between mass density ratio and viscosity ratio in the specific correction term value of buoyancy model. This results confirmed that the RTI phenomena can be observed in specific mass density ratio..

A comparative methodology between a real RCCS and a scaled-down heat-removal test facility, Annals of Nuclear Energy, 10.1016/j.anucene.2016.05.012, 96, 137-147, 2016.10, A new, highly efficient reactor cavity cooling system (RCCS) with passive safety features and without electrical or mechanical driving requirement is proposed. The RCCS design consists of two continuous closed regions: an ex-reactor pressure vessel region (RPV region) and a cooling region with a heat-transfer surface to ambient air assumed to be 40 (°C). The RCCS uses a novel shape to efficiently remove the heat released from the RPV through radiation and natural convection. Employing air as the working fluid and ambient air as the ultimate heat sink, the new RCCS design strongly reduces the possibility of losing the heat sink for decay-heat-removal. In the paper, we address a comparative methodology between a real RCCS (REAL) and a scaled-down heat-removal test facility (SCALE). As an example, the heat flux by radiation of (SCALE) can be the same as that of (REAL) because the two have the same temperatures of the RPV and the RCCS,
TRPV(REAL)
=
TRPV(SCALE)
,
TRCCS(REAL)
=
TRCCS(SCALE)
, and the same view and configuration factors. Next, we also conduct comparisons on natural convection using the Grashof number,
Gr
rRCCS
-
rRPV
. Here, the ratio of (SCALE) to (REAL) in terms of characteristic length is defined as (
rRCCS
-
rRPV
)(SCALE)(
rRCCS
-
rRPV
)(REAL)=1x. When the working fluid in (SCALE) can be pressurized up to
x32
times that of (REAL), (SCALE)'s Grashof number,
Gr
rRCCS
-
rRPV
, can be the same as that of (REAL). Moreover, (SCALE)'s heat flux on the RPV surface as the experimental conditions for obtaining the same Grashof number as that of (REAL) can be determined. The difference between (SCALE) and (REAL) in terms of the heat flux on the RPV surface is (x-1) times (REAL)'s heat flux by natural convection. Thus, (SCALE) will obtain valuable experimental data for demonstrating the new RCCS's performance..

75. Koji Morita, Tatsuya Matsumoto, Shinpei Nishi, Tatsuya Nishikido, Songbai Cheng, Hirotaka Tagami, Tohru Suzuki, Yoshiharu Tobita, A new empirical model for self-leveling behavior of cylindrical particle beds, journal of nuclear science and technology, 10.1080/00223131.2015.1126204, 53, 5, 713-725, 2016.05, During the material relocation phase of core disruptive accidents in sodium-cooled fast reactors, the rapid quenching and fragmentation of molten materials discharged from the reactor core into the lower plenum region can lead to the formation of debris beds. Coolant boiling may lead to leveling of the mound-shaped beds, which changes both the beds' coolability with decay heat in the fuel and the neutronic characteristics. In this study, a series of experiments using simulant materials were performed to develop an experimental database of self-leveling processes of particle beds in a cylindrical system. To simulate the coolant boiling in the beds in the experiments, a gas injection method was used to percolate nitrogen gas uniformly through the base of a bed with a conical-shaped mound. Time variations in bed height during the self-leveling process were measured for different particle sizes, densities and sphericities, and gas injection velocities. Using a dimensional analysis approach, a new model was proposed. This model correlates the experimental data on transient bed height with an empirical equation using a characteristic time for self-leveling development and an equilibrium bed height. The proposed model reasonably predicts the self-leveling development of particle beds..
76. Yoshiharu Tobita, Kenji Kamiyama, Hirotaka Tagami, Ken Ichi Matsuba, Tohru Suzuki, Mikio Isozaki, Hidemasa Yamano, Koji Morita, Liancheng Guo, Bin Zhang, Development of the evaluation methodology for the material relocation behavior in the core disruptive accident of sodium-cooled fast reactors, journal of nuclear science and technology, 10.1080/00223131.2016.1143409, 53, 5, 698-706, 2016.05, The in-vessel retention (IVR) of core disruptive accident (CDA) is of prime importance in enhancing safety characteristics of sodium-cooled fast reactors (SFRs). In the CDA of SFRs, molten core material relocates to the lower plenum of reactor vessel and may impose significant thermal load on the structures, resulting in the melt-through of the reactor vessel. In order to enable the assessment of this relocation process and prove that IVR of core material is the most probable consequence of the CDA in SFRs, a research program to develop the evaluation methodology for the material relocation behavior in the CDA of SFRs has been conducted. This program consists of three developmental studies, namely the development of the analysis method of molten material discharge from the core region, the development of evaluation methodology of molten material penetration into sodium pool, and the development of the simulation tool of debris bed behavior. The analysis method of molten material discharge was developed based on the computer code SIMMER-III since this code is designed to simulate the multi-phase, multi-component fluid dynamics with phase changes involved in the discharge process. Several experiments simulating the molten material discharge through duct using simulant materials were utilized as the basis of validation study of the physical models in this code. It was shown that SIMMER-III with improved physical models could simulate the molten material discharge behavior, including the momentum exchange with duct wall and thermal interaction with coolant. In order to develop an evaluation methodology of molten material penetration into sodium pool, a series of experiments simulating jet penetration behavior into sodium pool in SFR thermal condition were performed. These experiments revealed that the molten jet was fragmented in significantly shorter penetration length than the prediction by existing correlation for light water reactor conditions, due to the direct contact and thermal interaction of molten materials with coolant. The fragmented core materials form a sediment debris bed in the lower plenum. It is necessary to remove decay heat safely from this debris bed to achieve IVR. A simulation code to analyze the behavior of debris bed with decay heat was developed based on SIMMER-III code by implementing physical models, which simulate the interaction among solid particles in the bed. The code was validated by several experiments on the fluidization of particle bed by two-phase flow. These evaluation methodologies will serve as a basis for advanced safety assessment technology of SFRs in the future..
