Abstract

This document presents the comparison between the simulation results and the plant measurements during a Reactor Coolant Pump Trip in C. Trillo Nuclear Power Plant in different burnup conditions.

This work is part of the Spanish contribution to the Code Assessment and Maintenance Program (CAMP) as a member of UNIDAD ELÉCTRICA, S.A. (UNESA).

C. Trillo is a 3010 MWth three loop PWR Nuclear Power Plant designed by Siemens-KWU. Commercial operation started in August 1988, currently the Plant is running the 11th annual cycle.

The simulation has been carried out with the RELAP5/MOD3.2 code, running on a HP 715/50 work-station.

The transient main parameters have been correctly assessed, however predictions at the beginning of transient are more difficult as the reactor remains at a high power level after pump trip.
