Qualification of a nuclear power plant training simulator involves both validation and verification. Response of the simulator in duplicating various training scenarios are validated against reference plant data, similar plant data, engineering code output data, or best estimate judgment. Verification involves confirming the accuracy of the simulator. The EPRI plan for simulator qualification described in this report details the procedures to validate the performance of the simulator and to verify its compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. An estimate of the resources to conduct this plan is included as are the necessary forms to document performance. 7 refs., 25 figs.
