Abstract

An analyses of a reflooding experiment with RELAP5/MOD2 cycle 36.04 is presented. The experiment had been carried out in the REWET-II facility simulating the reactor core with a bundle of 19 electrically heated rods. On the basis of the results of two calculations recommendations for the core nodalization are presented, and a modification to the code is proposed.
