Advanced thermohydraulic simulation code for transients in LMFBRs (SSC-L code)

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6587997· OSTI ID:6587997
Physical models for various processes that are encountered in preaccident and transient simulation of thermohydraulic transients in the entire liquid metal fast breeder reactor (LMFBR) plant are described in this report. A computer code, SSC-L, was written as a part of the Super System Code (SSC) development project for the ''loop''-type designs of LMFBRs. This code has the self-starting capability, i.e., preaccident or steady-state calculations are performed internally. These results then serve as the starting point for the transient simulation.
