VanderKaa, T

The Fuel Rod Analysis Program - Transient FRAP-T6 was independently assessed through comparisons with experimental data obtained from a Loss-of-Coolant Accident (LOCA) simulation test performed in the National Research Universal (NRU) reactor. A concise computer code description is given and computer code calculations are compared with experimental data from materials deformation test MT-1. Results of these comparison are discussed for different boundary conditions and different mathematical models which describe the physical processes in the fuel rod.
