N2 - Electricité de France (EDF), with the scientific cooperation of Université Catholique de Louvain (UCL), is starting new investigations about the blowdown phenomena. For these purposes, EDF is considering to build a new experimental installation called BRECHE. In this article, the main features of the design of the test rig are presented together with the numerical simulation carried out with EUROPLEXUS code for the hydraulic and mechanical design of BRECHE.
