Description

Different containment safety features are analyzed. Combined with the accident process analysis and physical model classification, a containment system analysis hierarchy, which can be applied to advanced containment system simulation and experimental verification, is built. Different physical models, experimental methodology, scaling criteria, PIRT, mathematical models and test process logic are included. It attempts to provide theoretical support and design reference for future containment system characteristics verification experiments. It is also applicable for the system simulation, including complex coupling of physical phenomena and processes. (authors)
