Description
The IAEA CRP No. 1496 on 'Benchmarking, against Experimental Data, of the Neutronic and Thermalhydraulic Computational Methods and Tools for Operation and Safety Analysis for Research Reactors' provides a novel opportunity to benchmark and compare the accuracy and efficiency of both off-the-shelf and locally developed computational tools to a wide set of experimental research reactor benchmark analysis. In the scope of this project, various analysis groups have evaluated the ETRR-2 benchmark analysis – consisting of steady state, loss of flow and negative reactivity insertion transient measurements. This report summarizes and compares the analysis methodologies adopted, the code systems employed, and the simulation results generated by the different analysis groups. A comparison of the computational results to supplied experimental results is also provided in this report. (author)
