Gaps in the MSTDB are being targeted by measurements of uranium- and plutonium- bearing fuel salts.
Reference Salts are FLiNaK, FLiBe, and NaCI-KCI.
National labs and Universities are measuring aliquots of the same batch of FLiNaK, and NaCI-KCI to quantify reproducibility of several methods.
Required Thermochemical and Thermophysical Properties:
Liquids/solidus temperatures
Salt boiling temperatures
Vapor pressure
Solubility of FPs and impurities
Heat capacity
Density
Volume expansion coefficients
Surface tension
Viscosity
Thermal conductivity/diffusivity
Emissivity
