The project leader is the Vice-Chairman of the OECD/SERENA Program Review Group and the Leader of the OECD/SERENA Analytical Working Group

The research project SERENA (Steam Explosion REsolution for Nuclear Applications) addresses the remaining issues on fuel-coolant interaction mechanisms and their effect on ex-vessel steam explosion energetics. In the project leading scientists in this field from Belgium, Canada, Finland, France, Germany, Japan, Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, USA, and Slovenia (JSI) are participating. The main goal of the project SERENA is to gain from the safety standpoint enough reliable estimations of the pressure loads during a hypothetical ex-vessel steam explosion in a flooded reactor cavity.
