New source term data under severe accidents in 1300MWe PWR
Description
TID-14844, which was issued in 1962, has been used for regulatory applications of source term under core melt accidents. But recently, USNRC issued NUREG-1465 for regulatory purposes, which represents more realistic source term than TID-14844. NUREG-1465 is based upon research results and insights for accident source terms obtained over 40 years in PWRs. Following these mevements, in-containment source term calculations for TLOFW (Total Loss of Feed Water) in 1300MWe PWR is calculated and compared with NUREG-1465 source term. This study provides not only new source term data using MELCOR1.8.4 and its state-of-the-art models but also evaluating basis for mitigation capability under severe accidents in 1300MWe PWR
