Abstract

This report deals with the results of the "post-test analysis" of the test BL-06 performed in the LOBI/MOD2 test facility.

LOBI/MOD2 is an integral test facility that represents, at approximately 1:712 scale, a four loop (KWU design, 1300 MWe) PWR.

The test BL-06 simulates a 1% cold leg break LOCA, with the main coolant pumps switched off very late in the transient.

The calculations have been realized with the code Relap5/Mod3.2.1. The uncertainty evaluation of the calculation result has been performed using a specific method developed by Pisa University.
