ABSTRACT

First a brief description is given of recent progress in connection with the diffusiophoretic mechanism modelling in the PWR primary circuit fission products transport code SOPHAEROS V1.1. This is followed by some calculations for a steam generator tube of Pressurised Water Reactor geometry showing that steam condensation increases the retention of fission products aerosols under the influence of the diffusiophoretic mechanism, giving a clear indication of the importance of this phenomenon in accident sequences.
