During normal plasma operation the erosion of the ”plasma facing components” occurs and the dusts formed tends to deposit onto the divertor surface. In case of an In-vessel LOCA, these dusts may resuspend and transported to the VV Pressure Suppression System.
Define the maximum amount of mobilized dust is an issue of main concern. MELCOR v1.8.6 hasn’t a resuspension model and an attempt to introduce a resuspension model in MELCOR was performed
