Simulation of condensation in a closed, slightly inclined horizontal pipe with a modified RELAP5 code
(2014-07-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe 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 ... -
System code validation series based on a consistent plant nodalization of the ROSA/LSTF integra test facility
(2016)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyExperimental results obtained at integral test facilities are used in the validation process of thermal - hydraulic system codes for the steady - state and transient simulation of light water reactors. The expertise and ... -
Testing methodologies for quantifying physical models uncertainties. A comparative exercise using CIRCE and IPREM (FFTBM)
(2016-08-15)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe increasing importance of Best-Estimate Plus Uncertainty (BEPU) analyses in nuclear safety and licensing processes have lead to several international activities. The latest findings highlighted the uncertainties of ... -
Validation of a BEPU methodology through a blind benchmark activity at the PKL test facility
(American Nuclear Society (ANS), 2019)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyValidation is a key step in the field of thermal hydraulics and has played a crucial role in the implementation of system codes. These codes are then included in licensing methodologies being those either best estimate ...
