ROSA-III Program for BWR LOCA/ECCS integral test

  • 1. Japan Atomic Energy Research Inst., Tokai-mura, Ibaraki-ken

Description

The Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI) initiated the Rig of Safety Assessment Number 3 (ROSA-III) program in 1978 to conduct an integral system effect test of a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) in a boiling water reactor (BWR) to study the fundamental thermal-hydraulic phenomena during a LOCA and the effectiveness of the emergency core cooling system (ECCS). The objectives of the ROAS-III program are: (1) to study the BWR LOCA scenario comprehensively varying the test conditions on the break, ECCS and other parameters; (2) to identify any problem area or unexpected phenomena in a BWR LOCA; and (3) to provide experimental data for the computer code assessment
