Evaluation of SPACE code for simulation of reactor scram due to unplanned loss of RCP power in OPR 1000

  • 1. KHNP Central Research Institute, Daejeon (Korea, Republic of)

Description

SPACE (Safety and Performance Analysis Code for Nuclear Power Plants) has been developing by KHNP with the cooperation with KEPCO E and C and KAERI. SPACE code is expected to be applied to the safety analysis for LOCA (Loss of Coolant Accident) and Non LOCA scenarios. SPACE code solves two fluid, three field governing equations and programmed with C++ computer language using object oriented concepts. To evaluate the analysis capability for the transient phenomena in the actual nuclear power plant, the reactor trip accident due to the loss of RCP power in OPR1000 (Ulchin unit 4) was simulated with SPACE code
