During a reactivity insertion accident, the temperature and the pressure rapidly increase inside the rod and can lead to the rupture of the clad and the ejection of fuel toward the coolant. Since the fuel could be finely fragmented, the thermal interaction between fuel and coolant (FCI) could create a pressure wave as well as a large vapor volume. Safety-related consequences of the FCI may be related to both phenomena. Past experimental studies concerning such a RIA related FCI are in-pile experiments in thermal hydraulics conditions that differ from PWR conditions. Therefore validation of a simulation tool from these data and extrapolation to reactors conditions is subject to uncertainties. This experimental study is devoted to the violent...
