    Abstract

    SANCY and CAPHORN projects investigated physical phenomena related to severe nuclear accidents with importance to Finnish nuclear power plants. Currently the major topics are the ex-vessel coolability issues, long-term severe accident management and containment leak tightness, hydrogen combustion, and adoption and development of new calculation tools considering also the needs of the future Olkiluoto 3 plant. The projects employed both experimental and analytical methods.
