QUASAR: A methodology for quantification of uncertainties in severe accident source terms
Conference
·
OSTI ID:7178441
The purpose of the present paper is to describe a methodology which was developed as part of the QUASAR (Quantification and Uncertainty Analysis of Source Terms for Severe Accidents in Light Water Reactors) program at BNL. QUASAR is a large program which will apply the methodology described in this paper to severe accident sequences in LWRs using the STCP.
