Description

A baseline calculation for MELCOR database (DB) is confirmed for OPR-1000 as a target plant. This is an essential process to provide firm ground before all calculations and analysis are to be made for DB extension in the next stage. For this study, MELCOR major input is checked and assessed via comparing the system behavior between MELCOR and MAAP4 codes for station blackout (SBO) scenarios as a typical high pressure sequence. The following variables in core, primary system (RCS) and steam generator (SG) until reactor vessel failure time are selected for the system behavior confirmation. - Core: fuel temperature - RCS: primary pressure - SG: pressure/temperature and mass inventory
