  • The cornerstone of severe accident strategy of Nordic BWRs is to flood the reactor cavity for the long-termcoolability of an ex-vessel debris bed. As a prerequisite of the long-term coolability, the hot debris bedformed from fuel coolant interactions (FCI) should be quenched. In the present study, coupling of theMELCOR and COCOMO codes is realized with the aim to analyze the quench process of an ex-vessel debrisbed under prototypical condition of a Nordic BWR. In this coupled simulation, MELCOR performs an integralanalysis of accident progression, and COCOMO performs the thermal–hydraulic analysis of the debrisbed in the flooded cavity. The effective diameter of the particles is investigated. The discussion on thebed’s shape shows a significant effect on the propagation of the quench front, due to different flow patterns.Compared with MELCOR standalone simulation, the coupled simulation predicts earlier cavity poolsaturation and containment venting.
