An interactive workstation-based simulation code for studying postulated severe accidents in gas-cooled reactors has been developed to accommodate user-generated plant design input with {open_quotes}smart front-end{close_quotes} checking. New code features include on- and off-line plotting, on-line help and documentation, and an automated sensitivity study option. The code and its predecessors have been validated using comparisons with a variety of experimental data and similar codes. 4 refs.
