Analysis of TROI-13 Steam Explosion Experiment

Figure 5

Simulated pressure histories at the positions of pressure detectors IVDP101 and IVDP102 in comparison to TROI-13 experimental measurements. Triggering was performed at positions 0.03, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 m. The melt droplets mass involved in the steam explosion is given as 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% fractions of the total corium mass entered in the water at the steam explosion triggering time. Time zero on the figures corresponds to steam explosion triggering.
