Source term evaluation is important in legislation for the licensing of a plant. So a comprehensive
review of historical progress in source term analysis and source term experimental programs have been
presented for better understanding of core melt progression and fission product behavior under severe accident.
The discussions mainly focus on the advancement in source term and comparison between source term
experimental programs. For In-vessel and Ex-vessel source term estimation, simulated and design based
experiments had been performed. Most of the experiments have been performed to understand the behavior and
analysis of radionuclides during different accident consequences. Data obtained from these tests have been used
for validation of Computer based codes. This study gives a comprehensive review of the source term and the
source term experimental programs designed for investing the source term and fission product release behavior.
Key words: fission products, severe accidents, Source term, source term code package, source term experimenltal programs, ,
