Comparative analysis of a hypothetical transient over power accident in a LMFBR using different computer models for a common Benchmark problem
Description
Results from a comparative analysis of the initiating and disassembly phase of a hypothetical LMFBR over power accident are presented. The initiating fault was a reactivity ramp. The analyses were carried out for a common Benchmark problem with five different computer models (CAPRI/KADIS, CARMEN/KADIS, EAC/VENUS, FRAX/VENUS, SES/EPIC). Steady state and transient conditions before and after FCI initiation and during disassembly are compared. Differencies in the models for FCI and disassembly simulation are discussed. Assumptions and conditions for the calculations were made intentionally such that the accident would enter an energetic hydrodynamic disassembly phase
