RELAP4/MOD6 predictions comparisons with LOFT LOCE L2-2 data. [PWR]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6042640
Comparisons are made between RELAP4/MOD6 predicted and experimental measured quantities for Loss-of-Fluid Test Loss-of-Coolant Experiment L2-2. These data comparisons provide a detailed record for subsequent analysis. Comparisons indicate that the trends in the system hydraulic response were generally predicted well. However, the broken cold leg break flow was probably overpredicted in subcooled and saturated critical flow which led to an incorrect core flow which resulted in overpredicting the fuel rod cladding surface temperature response.
