    Abstract : OECD/NEA ROSA/LSTF project tests are performed on the Large Scale Test Facility (LSTF). LSTF is a full-height, full-pressure and 1/48 volumetrically-scaled two-loop system which aims to simulate Japanese Tsuruga-2 Westinghouse-type 4-loop PWR. READ MORE

  2. 2. TRACE Code Validation for Natural Circulation During Small Break LOCA in EPR-Type Reactor

    University essay from KTH/Kärnkraftssäkerhet

    Author : Joan Bertran Morancho; [2011]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The PWR PACTEL test facility was built in Lappeenranta (Finland) to gain experience in thermal-hydraulics behavior of vertical steam generators used by EPR (European Pressurized Water Reactor) during SBLOCA (Small Break Loss of Coolant Accident) transient, which involves natural circulation phenomenon. The benchmark, which consisted of blind and open part, offered a unique opportunity for code users to improve and test their knowledge and skills in developing the input deck models and performing calculations.
