Description
Summary:•Aerosol retention was determined during a steam generator tube rupture.•The main aerosol deposition occurred in the break vicinity.•Retention was a result of competing mechanisms for deposition and release.•The particles with agglomerate structures fragmented in tests involving high velocity gas jets.•Aerosol retention was significantly higher in the flooded than in the dry steam generator.
