Description

System codes are widely used to determine safety margins in NPPs. Unfortunately, uncertainties still exist in the evaluation of Nuclear Plants behaviour in case of accident. In this paper an outline is given concerning the present status of code assessment. In particular, two items are dealt with: importance of user on the results; procedure to quantify the limits of codes in the application to experimental data. (author). 31 refs, 29 figs, 4 tabs
