The RETRAN computer code, developed by EPRI through its Contractors, EI International, Inc. (EI) and Computer Simulation and Analysis, Inc. (CSA), is now widely used by the international nuclear community for various types of safety analyses. In order to exchange information concerning the current use of the code by the various organizations, EPRI and CSA sponsored the Ninth International meeting in Monterey, California, on June 7--10, 1998. The opening session featured a panel discussion on Analysis Need for Supporting Nuclear Plants in the 21st Century by representatives of the US Nuclear Industry as well as a review of RETRAN activities since the last International RETRAN Meeting. During the three-day meeting, technical papers were presented by the various participants. The papers generally dealt with the following topics: (1) RETRAN-3D development, verification, and validation; (2) RETRAN-02/RETRAN-3D analysis of PWRs; (3) RETRAN-02/RETRAN-3D analysis of BWRs; and (4) CORETRAN development and analyses activities.
