The low-pressure depressurization system (LPDS) of advanced passive pressurized water reactors (PWRs) is designed to provide depressurization of the reactor coolant system during a small break loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA). The liquid entrainment t

During the reflood phase of a postulated large break loss-of-coolant accident (LBLOCA), the liquid head in the reactor vessel downcomer provides the driving force to reflood the core. Since the reflood rate is a function of the downcomer inventory, t

For the two-phase flow in a horizontal pipe, individual phases may separate because of gravity. This horizontal stratification significantly impacts interfacial drag, interfacial heat transfer and wall drag of the two-phase flow. Due to the low inter

Direct contact condensation in the cold leg of pressurized water reactor is an important phenomenon during a postulated loss-of-coolant accident. The amount of condensation in the cold legs impacts the thermal hydraulic behavior of the reactor coolan

The development of a fully-implicit scheme to model the two-phase three-field flow and heat transfer problem is presented here. The model was originally developed to simulate the complex phenomena occurring in proximity of the quench front of a nucle

Since the 1988 Appendix K Rulemaking change, there has been significant interest in the development of codes and methodologies for 'best-estimate' analysis of loss-of-coolant accidents (LOCAs). Most development has been directed toward large-break (L

Westinghouse realistic Large Break LOCA methodology (Frepoli, 2008) is based on the use of the WCOBRA/TRAC code (Young, et. al., 1998). The original COBRA/TRAC code (Thurgood, et. al., 1983) was developed at Pacific Northwest Laboratory by combining

Many experiments have been conducted in the past with full-scale rod bundles to develop void fraction correlations or interfacial drag model which can be used to predict the mixture level in a reactor core following a postulated Loss of Coolant Accid

In 1988, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued a revision to 10CFR50.46 which allows realistic calculations for loss-of-coolant accident/emergency core cooling system (ECCS) analysis. The revision also requires that uncertainties in the
