LOCA hydroloads calculations with multidimensional nonlinear fluid/structure interaction. Volume 4. Fluid/structure interaction application studies. Final report
Description
This report, the fourth and last in a series of reports for EPRI Project RP1065, describes an application of the three-dimensional, nonlinear, fluid-structure interaction methodology that was developed in the project. The methodology was applied to the calculation of the structural response of pressure vessel internals during a postulated LOCA. The model used was a modification of the HDR Test V31.1 model described in the third volume of this series. The PWR/HDR model included a simplified representation of fuel bundles so that the configuration was closer to a typical PWR than was the HDR C31.1 model. Results of the PWR/HDR calculation are compared with the HDR V31.1 results. Transient response of the fuel bundle is also discussed
