Knowledge transfer to fuel performance codes
Coordinated by Lelio Luzzi, POLIMI (IT)
The objective of WP7 is to transfer the knowledge acquired in the project from the combination of basic
and technological research to an engineering and industrial scale by implementing them in fuel
performance codes (FPC) and applying these codes to ESNII relevant conditions. This transfer will induce
an improvement of fuel performance codes in terms of reliability, accuracy and applicability, i.e. in their
capabilities for the design and safetyâ€assessment of the ESNII prototypes. The case selection for validation,
benchmarking and application purposes is assigned to a task force made of members from each institution
participating to WP7. This task force is also responsible for the technical exchanges with and disseminâ€
ation to the user group. This WP deals with the fuel pin performance analysis and therefore also
constitutes the link of INSPYRE with other JPNM and ESNII projects focusing on cladding and internals, as
well as with other international organisations.
