[en] A computer code called TVENT was developed to predict variations of pressure and flow induced in nuclear facility ventilation systems by a tornado. The final revisions made to TVENT that resulted from the suggestions of several users and the application of TVENT by the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory (LASL) to real ventilation systems, such as those in the new LASL plutonium facility are described. TVENT was also used in an investigation of scale-modeling laws for ventilation systems. Application of TVENT to the LASL plutonium facility demonstrated that the code will handle large, complex systems. The results showed that tornado-induced transients would produce pressure reversals between zones and high flow through the filters in some plenums. The investigation of any serious implications of these conditions will require a separate effort that is beyond the scope of this report. Scale models based on several different assumptions were analyzed using TVENT to determine the best approach in building a scale model. One model distorted viscosity, and another distorted compressibility. Comparison of the distorted model results with results obtained using full-scale dimensions showed conclusively that compressibility should not be distorted, but that viscosity can be distorted without significant effects
