Uncertainty in predicted loft reflooding response: influence on cladding oxidation

;
Semiscale gravity feed reflood and FLECHT-SET tests have been reviewed to determine phenomena which may be important during LOFT reflood. FLOOD4 and RELAP4/MOD6 predictions for Semiscale and FLECHT-SET tests were compared to experimental data. Based on these comparisons, uncertainties were estimated for the LOFT reflood predictions; these uncertainties were then utilized to bound the extent of cladding oxidation expected for the LOFT L2-3 and L2-4 tests.
