PWR Subcooled Blowdown Analysis Using a Two-Dimensional Equivalent Piping Network to Calculate Asymmetric Core Barrel Loadings

摘要

The paper examines the asymmetric core barrel loadings associated with the postulated LOCA of a typical PWR. Pressure and pressure difference histories for various points in the modeled PWR primary coolant system form the output from this subcooled blowdown analysis. These histories may then be utilized to generate forcing functions for use in a structural-dynamic analysis of the PWR system. (ERA citation 04:008263)
