Description

A number of WH plants experienced RCS flow asymmetry. Westinghouse calculated maximum RCS flow asymmetry for 2,3,4 loop plants. Based on this information, effect of RCS flow asymmetry on pressure transient for Locked Rotor was studied using RETRAN code. Cases for symmetric and asymmetric RCS flow were analyzed. Results were also compared to LOFTRAN results. Results show that assumption of RCS flow asymmetry does result in slightly higher peak pressure, but the effect is not significant
