Simulation of rod ejection accident byPARCS code

Abstract

This paper describes reactor core model used for simulating REA. The model was designed in PARCS utilizing graphical interface SNAP. The data for model were given from benchmark NEACPR L-335. The PARCS model used integrated thermal hydraulic block for calculation. The results and solution is shown in the paper. Thermal hydraulic calculation can also be provided by external system code TRACE. The PARCS model is prepared to couple with TRACE model for giving more accurate calculation.
