International Code Assessment and Applications Program: Summary of code assessment studies concerning RELAP5/MOD2, RELAP5/MOD3, and TRAC-B. International Agreement Report [PDF]
Members of the International Code Assessment Program (ICAP) have assessed the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) advanced thermal-hydraulic codes over the past few years in a concerted effort to identify deficiencies, to define user guidelines, and to determine the state of each code. The results of sixty-two code assessment reviews, conducted at

Analysis of natural circulation characteristics for pool-type fast reactor system
In the inherent safety design of the pool-type fast reactor, when the normal heat transfer routine of the primary system is lost during accident conditions, the residual heat of the reactor core is transferred to the ultimate heat sink through the ...

Steam generator identification using piecewise affine model
The role of steam generators in power plants is to remove the thermal power produced in the first cycle and provide the turbine intake steam. Controlling the steam generator water level has an important role in preventing unwanted turbine trips and ...

Preliminary study of coupling CFD code FLUENT and system code RELAP5
Annals of Nuclear Energy, 2014Abstract The present paper discusses a coupling strategy of the 3D (three-dimensional) computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code ANSYS-FLUENT with the best estimate 1D (one-dimensional) thermal–hydraulic system code RELAP5/MOD3.1. Preliminarily, by using DLL (Dynamic Link Library) technology and FLUENT UDF (User Defined Functions), an explicit coupling
