Lin, J C

The heat transfer and carryover rate fraction correlations are presented for use in the Loss-of-Fluid Test (LOFT) 5.5-ft core evaluation model (EM) calculation of reflood during a loss-of-coolant experiment (LOCE). The reflood heat transfer and carryover rate fraction correlations for the LOFT EM calculation are described. The LOFT reflood heat transfer correlation was developed by modifying the new full-length emergency cooling heat transfer (FLECHT) correlation developed by Westinghouse Electric Corporation.
