The presented paper contains a description of approaches to simulate processes, observed during leakage in the steam generator of the reactor with liquid metal coolant. These approaches have been implemented in thermal hydraulic code HYDRA-IBRAE/LM. To calculate motion of gas bubbles in liquid metal flow and heat transfer of gas bubbles with metal, different relations are used in HYDRA-IBRAE/LM code. The code contains models of chemical interaction between water and sodium for modelling of tube rupture in sodium cooled fast reactors, Modelling of the experiments has been made using HYDRA-IBRAE/LM code. The results of the modelling with determined main factors are presented in the article.
