A qualification testing program plan for SIMMER; A computer code for LMFBR disrupted core analysis. Research program planning report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6237336
The SIMMER Code, developed at Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory, analyzes the various phases of a CDA (Core disassembly accident) in an LMFBR. The qualification testing program, comprised of two stages, is discussed. The first stage is developmental verification, which involves interaction with code development. The second stage is independent qualification testing and it involves an independent audit of the first stage and confirmatory predictions of large experiments without a priori adjustments of the Code. An experimental and analytical approach is described intended to accomplish this task.
