Book excerpt: This publication reports on the results of an IAEA cooperated research project (CRP) on benchmarking severe accident computer codes for heavy water reactor applications. The CRP scope included the identification and selection of a severe accident sequence, selection of appropriate geometrical and boundary conditions, conduct of benchmark analyses, comparison of the results of all code outputs, evaluation of the capabilities of computer codes to predict important severe accident phenomena, and the proposal of necessary code improvements and/or new experiments to reduce uncertainties. The summary report provides a comparison of key results obtained from five participating countries and concludes with lessons learned and recommendations for the future.
Download or read book Status and Evaluation of Severe Accident Simulation Codes for Water Cooled Reactors written by International Atomic Energy Agency and published by International Atomic Energy Agency. This book was released on 2019-07-23 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accurate prediction of source term and modelling of severe accident progression by severe accident analysis codes is integral to the safe operation of water cooled reactors in both developing and developed Member States. The source term released to the environment during severe accidents, calculated by these codes, is utilized by specialized atmospheric transport codes to evaluate the transport of radionuclides in the environment. Though severe accident codes are comprehensively validated based on experiments, there remains disagreement among calculations performed using different codes for the same scenarios. Such differences and their causes are being explored by a number of organizations, including cooperation by developers through code to code benchmarks. Furthermore, severe accident phenomena model improvements are being made with insights from experiments and with the development of models to account for previously less understood phenomena. This publication summarizes the current status of severe accident analysis codes and recommends areas for research and development. The information is detailed in terms of major findings, identified gaps, and recommended future actions.
Download or read book Use and Development of Coupled Computer Codes for the Analysis of Accidents at Nuclear Power Plants written by International Atomic Energy Agency and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication summarizes the results of the Technical Meeting on "Progress in development and use of coupled codes for accident analysis". The significantly increased capacity of new computation technology has made it possible to proceed the code coupling not only between neutronics and thermal hydraulics but also between thermal hydraulics and one or more other disciplines. This publication contains a review of state-of-the-art technologies in code coupling and its application to the accident analysis of nuclear power plants. The presentations and the papers given at the Technical Meeting are enclosed on the attached CD.--Publisher's description.

Download or read book Reflections on the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Accident written by Joonhong Ahn and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on nuclear engineering education in the post-Fukushima era. It was edited by the organizers of the summer school held in August 2011 in University of California, Berkeley, as part of a collaborative program between the University of Tokyo and UC Berkeley. Motivated by the particular relevance and importance of social-scientific approaches to various crucial aspects of nuclear technology, special emphasis was placed on integrating nuclear science and engineering with social science. The book consists of the lectures given in 2011 summer school and additional chapters that cover developments in the past three years since the accident. It provides an arena for discussions to find and create a renewed platform for engineering practices, and thus nuclear engineering education, which are essential in the post-Fukushima era for nurturing nuclear engineers who need to be both technically competent and trusted in society.
