Numerical study on the release and migration behavior of fission gas in a molten LBE pool

The lead-cooled fast reactor (LFR) is one of the most promising fast neutron reactors using molten lead or the lead–bismuth eutectic (LBE) alloy as a coolant. Under postulated severe accidents, the fuel rod of LFR may be damaged, which would cause the release of fission gas, and the migration of fis...
