Description

A RELAP5-3D model of the Westinghouse AP1000 NSSS has been set up and it has been used to analyze the MSLB accident. Main results (both spatial distributions and time trends) have been represented with 3D plots and graphical movies. The method applied allows accounting for the coupled 3D neutronics and thermalyhdraulics effects, suggesting to consider its applicability in Safety Analysis.(author)
