The MAAP Thermal-Hydraulic Qualification and Application Project has as its objective to identify those thermal-hydraulic phenomena modeled in MAAP which are important in predicting severe accident sequences, to qualify those models and to provide guidelines for use of the code. This report provides user guidelines for use of the BWR version of MAAP. The report includes a discussion of the important features of the BWR that are modeled in MAAP, the MAAP modeling of phenomena important to predicting severe accidents and user guidelines for several accident sequences.
