Abstract

Availability Notice

The Thermalhydraulic Studies Group of Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) holds a large background in nuclear safety studies in the field of Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) code simulators. This report analyzes with RELAP5mod3.3 the ROSA-2 Test 3. This experiment is part of a Counterpart Test performed in LSTF and PKL Test Facilities within the framework of the OECD/NEA ROSA-2 and PKL-2 projects. Detailed core nodalizations and Pseudo 3D modeling have been object of study as well as the capabilities of the code for reproducing the correlation between the CET and the PCT.
