Sensitivity of risk parameters to component unavailability in reactor safety study (PSAP/PSAB computer codes). [PWR; BWR]
Technical Report

OSTI ID:6869991
The Probabilistic Sensitivity Analysis for Pressurized and Boiling Water Reactors (PSAP/PSAB) codes have been developed to update the WASH-1400 conclusions. The initial effort, reported in NUREG/CR-1879 Sensitivity of Risk Parameters to Human Errors in Reactor Safety Study for a PWR, concentrated on developing a code for system sensitivity to human errors based on an expanded version of the PWR fault trees from the Reactor Safety Study (RSS). The success of that effort and the insights gained from the code's use initiated the development of the PSAP/PSAB codes. The two codes allow the user to evaluate the impact of new data and system models on the conclusions drawn in WASH-1400. They are designed to be fast running and modular so that detailed sensitivity studies can be run efficiently.
