Implications of advanced computational methods for reactivity initiated accidents in nuclear reactors.

Implications of advanced computational methods for reactivity initiated accidents in nuclear reactors.

Advanced computational tools are applied to simulate a nuclear power plant (NPP) control rod assembly ejection (CRE) accident. The impact of these reactivity-initiated accidents (RIAs) on core reactivity behavior, 3D power distribution and stochastic reactivity estimation are evaluated. The three to...
