Loss of coolant accident simulation with RELAP5/SCDAPSIM/MOD4 for the Canadian supercritical water-cooled reactor
Abstract
RELAP5/SCDAPSIM/MOD4 has been improved to accommodate supercritical water properties and transcritical fluid transitions and is used for simulation of the Canadian Super Critical Water Reactor (SCWR). The system response to several postulated Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) transients are studied. For a 100% (single-ended) cold-leg break located in between the feedwater pump and the inlet plenum, the system pressure immediately drops followed …
