Abstract :
Numerical and experimental studies were performed to investigate the behaviour of lead–bismuth eutectic (LBE) after solidification. Re-crystallization of LBE is the main phenomenon to consider; it may lead to serious over-stressing of structural materials. The conditions for the target vessel of MEGAwatt PIlot Experiment (MEGAPIE) were especially considered. Some general recommendations were deduced in order to help avoiding dangerous events.
