Experimental orthogonal functions for the qualification of BWR stability events. Application to Peach Bottom NPP

摘要

In this work, BWR stability analysis was performed on an operating point (PT_UPV) of Peach Bottom NPP which is inside the exclusion region. The simulation was made with the coupled code RELAP5-MOD3.3/PARCSv2.7. This point is achieved departing from test point 3 by a control rod movement as it is usually performed in Nuclear Power Plants.
