Combined seismic-LOCA mechanical evaluation for Exxon Nuclear 15 x 15 reload fuel for Westinghouse PWR's
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:7320272
This report describes the combined seismic-LOCA analysis of the Exxon Nuclear Company (ENC) 15 x 15 reload fuel assemblies for use in Westinghouse PWR's. The objective of this analysis is to evaluate fuel rod stresses, guide tube stresses, and interactive grid spacer loads and deflections during a combined seismic-LOCA event to verify that the fuel remains ''coolable'' following such an event.
