Fig.1-2 Melt-accumulation behavior (numerical result)

We let molten UO2 (a), SUS (b), Zry (d), and B4C (d) flow at the center of the top boundary in order of heavy materials. Materials spread in a complicated fashion and accumulate in the pedestal. Since the amount of inflowing B4C is less than that of the other materials and it solidifies at the top boundary, its accumulation onto the pedestal was very limited.
