The Oak Ridge INverse Code (ORINC) is used to calculate temperature and heat flux at the surface of the electric heater rods used in the PWR-Blowdown Heat Transfer Separate Effects Program. Because heat flux cannot be measured and surface temperatures are not directly measured in the Thermal Hydraulics Test Facility (THTF), which provides experimental data to ORINC, efforts have been undertaken to validate the program's results to variations in key input variables. ORINC makes use of a one dimensional, lumped parameter, implicit finite difference model of the heat conduction equation.
