The Karlsruhe Lead Laboratory KALLA located at the Institute for Nuclear and Energy Technologies (IKET) of the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe (FZK) summarizes experimental activities using heavy liquid metals (HLM) as operation fluid. The KALLA activities covers ADS related aspects as well as aspects related to the development of HLM adapted materials measurement and monitoring tools and design solutions for spallation targets, pulsed ion targets or other metallurgical purposes.
KALLA is embedded in the interdisciplinary environment of the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe composed of specialists in the fields of material sciences, microwave technologies, neutronics and reactor physics as well as applied and fundamental thermalhydraulics.
The experimental field covered by KALLA necessitates a modular structure consisting of several individual facilities, in which single HLM specific issues are investigated experimentally. All of these experimental projects are accompanied by analytical and numerical programs. Within the KALLA project mainly HLM and water facilities are available.
