A preliminary evaluation of unprotected loss-of-flow accident for a prototype fast-breeder reactor

In the original licensing application for the prototype fast-breeder reactor, MONJU, the event progression during an unprotected loss of flow (ULOF), which is one of the technically inconceivable events postulated beyond design basis, was evaluated. Through this evaluation, it was confirmed that rad...
