ORIGEN2 calculations of PWR spent fuel decay heat compared with calorimeter data
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5451280
Decay heat generation rates calculated with the ORIGEN2 code are compared with measured values for 19 spent fuel assemblies from three commercial pressurized water reactors. Input parameters of primary and secondary importance to these calculations are identified, and the sensitivity of decay heat calculations to these parameters is established. 10 references.
