Description

As a part of the overall effort undertaken by Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) to review the GESSAR-II probabilistic risk assessment (PRA), an independent containment performance evaluation was performed for the BWR/6 Mark III containment standard plant design. This evaluation employed the containment event tree approach and focused solely on those accident sequences which are initiated by seismic events. This paper reports the findings of the study
