Bringing nuclear safety to the next level
SAMOSAFER builds on the results of the SAMOFAR project
Bringing nuclear safety to the next level
SAMOSAFER (Simulation Models and Safety Assessment for Fluid-fuel Energy Reactors) is one of the major Research and Innovation projects in the Horizon 2020 Euratom research programme aiming to develop and demonstrate new safety barriers for more controlled behavior of Molten Salt Reactors in severe accidents, based on new simulation models and tools validated with experiments. The grand objective is to ensure that the MSR can comply with all expected regulations in 30 years’ time. To this end, SAMOSAFER has focused on the generation of more accurate data and better validated numerical codes for more reliable simulation of molten salt reactors in stationary and transient operation modes.
The project concluded with a festive meeting in the beautiful Palais des Papes in Avignon.
SAMOSAFER work package teams presented the main results of the SAMOSAFER project and invited speakers presented an update on the status and future of MSR.
Slides of the presentations are available via Programme & Slides of presentations
