Nuclear power plant context : stakes ? What importance ?
FP transport/retention in primary circuit determines the source term
significant FP deposition for containment by-pass sequences, FP
retention in primary circuit is the only possibility to reduce radioactive releases in the environment
possible delayed FP releases (re-vaporisation is a source term factor in late phase)
at the break, aerosol/vapour-gas split for some FP (especially for Ru and I which poses main short-term radiological risk for human populations)
Obtain a realistic assessment of possible releases in environment to optimise management of accident’s consequences

Provide predictability of FP retention in primary circuit (I, Te, Cs, Ru) Provide predictability of volatile iodine (and Ru) speciation exiting the RCS in
900/1300 PWR undergoing a severe accident through different scenarios Phebus containment chemistry analyses can not explain the early gaseous iodine fraction
Analyses of PHEBUS FP (integral) and VERCORS HT (analytical) tests with SOPHAEROS (equilibrium chemistry in gas) to investigate FP retention and speciation within different oxido-reducing conditions and SIC/B release kinetics
Phebus FPT2 for FP speciation in TGT/TL under H2 and H2O with SIC/B
Vercors HT1/3 for FP speciation in TGT mostly under H2 with SIC/B
Earlier and on-going work SOPHAEROS analyses continuously progressed with regards to thermo
dynamic code MTDATA/SGTE (check of thermodynamic data of elements)
besides analysis of potential chemical kinetics limitations (because of low residence time, strong thermal gradient in some parts of RCS (CHIP)

Phebus test Overview
Main characteristics FP SM releases very variable
and depends on fuel degradation events (50g in FPT2 -150g in FPT1)
H2/H2O ratio : main H2 peak lasts ~ 2 (FPT1) to 20 min (FPT2/3) : never complete steam starvation
SM releases : most of SIC release in oxidising conditions, B constant in FPT2 (0.5 µg/s)
volatile FP releases (Mo excepted) initiated during Zr oxidation phase, Mo release starts after this phase
Significant H2 releasemain Zr oxidation phasemax (FPT2) : 95%

iodine species not only depends on oxido reducing conditions BUT on FP release kinetics (molar ratios : I/Cs, Cs/Mo-B-Re)
in H2O/H2 mixtures when Cs <<< I : volatile I not associated with Cs when Mo release low (during H2 phase) : CsI
after H2 release : large increase of Mo (CsI with others volatile I species)
evidence of volatile iodine not associated to Cs in FPT2 whatever H2O/H2 and releases
in Vercors I always associated to Cs even in HT2-3 with no clear impact of SIC (B)
Te condensation in TGT suggests Cs-tellurides in both HT1-3 tests

Results:1.1) Calculated integrated I speciation in Phebus and Vercors loops
In FPT0 large impact of SIC on I speciation : I (CdI2) [because of Cs (CsReO4)] In FPT2/3 small/no AIC impact : I (CsI) (CsOH not fully consumed by Mo and B) More volatile iodine species (HI) in FPT3 because no Cd (Cd + HI CdI2) and in FPT0 because less Cs/CsOH to react with (CsOH + HI CsI) In Vercors main predicted I species is CsI in HT1/3 (in agreement with FPT2/3) calculations and with exp. results ; no HI is predicted

Results:1.2) Predicted I & Cs speciation in HT1 TGT (under H2) without B and SIC
SOPHAEROS mainly predicts Cs2Te and CsI too a less extent in agreement with exp. condensation profiles of Cs, I and Te in TGT (small CsOH chemisorption at inlet tube)
As in reducing phases of Phebus, Cs2MoO4 is not favoured leaving large amount of CsOH to react with HI to form CsI (in HT1 Mo starts to release only during H2 release phase)
Main difference with Phebus tests is Cs-Te species condensation in TGT; in FPT2 these species were not evidenced in TGT (may be deposited upstream)

SOPHAEROS predicts partial vaporisation (~50%) of Cs2MoO4 deposited during the steam injection phase : explains by a decrease of Mo release kinetics during the subsequent H2 phase in HT3 due to early release of Mo (under H2O : > 20 % i.i. is released) Mo has a large impact on Cs speciation in calculations :
totally preventing CsI formation during H2O phase partly inhibiting its condensation (Cs2Te) in TGT during H2 phase
CsI is the only iodine species formed and predicted : no interaction of I with Cd

Results:1.2) Predicted FP speciation in HT3 TGT
Cs-Te species formed under H2 release rapidly become dominant species (in calc. Cs-Te condensation in TGT disturbed by aerosol particles, mainly metallic B)
no predicted interaction of Cd with I because all iodine has reacted with Cs in TGT
similar calculated behaviour for B, Ag and In that nucleates as metallic particles (limiting their interaction with FP, while metallic Cd vapours predicted to condense at TGT outlet
This explains : small impact of B on Cs speciation : boron mainly deposited in furnace tube and in TGT by thermophoresis
only small interaction of In with Te (In2Te) because In mainly transported as aerosols

Discussion:
Impact of Cd and Mo release kinetics
assuming a continuous Cd release leads to overprediction of I retention in SG AND low amount of volatile HI (cf FPT0/1)
if limited, a better agreement with I retention factor in SG BUT overprediction by 10 of HI formation (cf FPT3)
in HT3, complete I consumption by Cs prevents any reaction of Cd vapour with I

Summary and Conclusions
Volatile iodine species at low T
SOPHAEROS implies strong sensitivity to Cd, main species = HI (small amounts of SnI2, SnI4 and I2MoO2 in FPT3 with no Cd) in Phebus (FPT3 excepted) when volatile iodine correctly predicted, its condensation in SG is under estimated
FPT3 calc. results show a very high volatile I fraction (18% /i.b.i) when Cd is completely missing in accordance with exp. data (~30%) not observed in Vercors (HT1) because of Cs not completely consumed by Mo
no clear impact of SIC materials in Vercors HT tests under H2 (Ag, In mainly under metallic aerosol forms, HI completely react with Cs) analysis of VERCORS HT2 test : impact of SIC under H20
in Phebus more volatile iodine measured in FPT0 with high flow rate and low FP concentrations role of kinetics limitations still need to be investigated (CHIP) - - 25 VERCORS SEMINAR, Gréoux, October 15-16th, 2007Fission Product Transport
Summary and Conclusions
Iodine & Caesium vapour speciation
good agreement between iodine exp. data and SOPHAEROS only when measured I is associated with Cs
Cs2MoO4 favoured to detriment of CsI with high Mo release (under H2O), CsI/Cs2Te with low Mo release under H2
limited impact of B on Cs speciation (too much ?)
volatile iodine in Phebus only with low Cs or high Mo release not well
predicted (only CdI2 ?) : impact of others SM (Fe, Cr, Si…) VERCORS HT2 and FPT3
Sensitivity calculations
depending on Mo chemistry more or less CsI is calculated
