This paper discusses some applications of the modular accident analysis program (both MAAP3 and MAAP4) at the Pacific Gas & Electric Company (PG&E). MAAP is used to analyze the twin-unit Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant (DCPP). DCPP has two four-loop Westinghouse pressurized water reactors (PWRs). Although MAAP was extensively used to support the individual plant examination for DCPP and it is being used to support the development of a plant-specific severe accident management program, MAAP has also been a very useful tool in the areas of postevent analysis, engineering support, and operations support. This paper presents some examples of the use of MAAP in all these areas: the so-called non-severe-accident areas.
