MELCOR 1.0 calculations for the Battelle-Frankfurt gas mixing tests

Creators

Description

Recent comparisons of MELCOR predictions to the Battelle-Frankfurt Gas Mixing Experiments are presented. These predictions are for a hydrogen-nitrogen gas mixture that is injected into a model containment. The MELCOR results are compared to the experimental data, the results obtained using the HECTR code, and the results obtained using the RALOC code. This comparison provides critical testing of the MELCOR control volume hydrodynamics package and the flow path package
