Experimental simulation of fragmentation and stratification of core debris on the core catcher of a fast breeder reactor

•Fragmentation of two simultaneous metals jets in a bulk coolant analysed.•Particle size from experiments compared with theoretical analysis.•Jet breakup modes explained using dimensionless numbers.•Settling aspects of aluminium and lead debris on collector plate studied.•Results analysed in light o...
