External Events Analysis for LWRS/RISMC Project: Methodology Development and Early Demonstration

Conference ·
OSTI ID:1348078

The ultimate scope of Industrial Application #2 (IA) of the LWRS/RISMC project is a realistic simulation of natural external hazards that impose threat to a NPP. This scope requires the development of a methodology and of a qualified set of tools able to perform advanced risk- informed safety analysis. In particular the methodology should be able to combine results from seismic, flooding and thermal-hydraulic (TH) deterministic calculations with dynamic PRA. This summary presents the key points of methodology being developed and the very first sample application of it to a simple problem (spent fuel pool).
