AbstractAbstract
[en] This study addresses the survival of peripheral pins within an LMFBR subassembly during an unprotected Transient Overpower (TOP) Hypothetical Core Disruptive Accident (HCDA) by consideration of intrasubassembly incoherencies. A continuous analysis was made vs time from the initiation of the accident up to the point where the power decreases to a quasi-steady state for a Beginning-of-Cycle-4 (BOC-4) core of Fast Test Reactor (FTR), 0.5$/sec ramp case. Blockage was assumed to be formed after fuel pin's failure and effects due to blockages were examined. The study concludes that most peripheral pins within an LMFBR subassembly indeed will survive
