Title: LOCK; few-channel coolant-flow blockage study. [FACOM230; IBM360,370; FORTRAN IV]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6403743

LOCK was developed to study the problem of local blockage of coolant flow in a few channels in a fast breeder reactor. The program is designed to perform thermal calculations in the steady state and to calculate the transient behavior in temperature of the coolant and cladding. The heat transfer which is taken into account includes heat transmission mixing, thermal conduction, and cross flow.FACOM230;IBM360,370; FORTRAN IV; OS2/VS (FACOM), OS/360 (IBM360); 240K memory, card reader, tape drive, line printer.
