Under the umbrella of the European NUGENIA+ program the Air-SFP project was released in 2015 and finished in 2016. One part of the project was a benchmark of different severe accident codes investigating two possible accident scenarios in a spent fuel pool. The pool geometry and loading with spent nuclear fuel was taken from the Fukushima Daiichi unit 4 pool.
The SACRE group was active in the coordination of the severe accident code benchmark and the preparation of a benchmark report. The technical publication of the benchmark results is planned for 2018.
