SCDAP/RELAP5/MOD 3.1 Code Manual: Developmental assessment. Volume 5 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The SCDAP/RELAP5 code has been developed for best estimate transient simulation of Light Water Reactor coolant systems during a severe accident. The code models the coupled behavior of the reactor coolant system, the core, fission product released during

Implementation of dynamic start-up test experimental data as a main part of the nuclear code validation procedure: Developed RELAP5 model for VVER-1000

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology
The main purposes of start-up tests in nuclear power plants (NPPs) are to ensure safe and reliable operation, verify system functionality, comply with regulatory requirements, optimize performance, and establish a foundation for ongoing plant operation ...

Simulation of condensation in a closed, slightly inclined horizontal pipe with a modified RELAP5 code

open access: yes, 2014
The performance of the RELAP5 thermal-hydraulic system code was analyzed in predicting very fast transient condensation processes in horizontal pipes. The code significantly underpredicted the heat transfer from the primary to the secondary side in case ...

Simulation of a TRIGA Reactor Core Blockage Using RELAP5 Code

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2015
Cases of core coolant flow blockage transient have been simulated and analysed for the TRIGA IPR-R1 research reactor using the RELAP5-MOD3.3 code. The transients are related to partial and to total obstruction of the core coolant channels.

RELAP5 Analysis of OECD/NEA ROSA Project Experiment Simulating a PWR Loss-of-Feedwater Transient with High-Power Natural Circulation

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2012
A ROSA/LSTF experiment was conducted for OECD/NEA ROSA Project simulating a PWR loss-of-feedwater (LOFW) transient with specific assumptions of failure of scram that may cause natural circulation with high core power and total failure of high pressure ...
