Description

The characteristics of large break loss of coolant accident (LOCA) for Xi'an Pulsed Reactor were analyzed.Aiming at large break LOCA, a mathematical model was established,and the computer code was developed. The calculation results indicate that the maximum temperature of some fuel elements exceeds its design limit, but the fuel elements are not be melt in large break LOCA. (authors)
