An analysis code has been developed for evaluating the transient thermo-hydraulic behaviors of the pressurized water reactor system. A series of mathematical and physical models is considered in this code, such as the point reactor neutron kinetics model, the heat transfer model, the friction model, the thermo-physical property model and so on. All possible flow and heat transfer conditions in some accidents have been considered and their corresponding models are supplied. Gear’s method is adopted for a better solution to the stiff equations. In this paper, some general accidents in the pressurized water reactors have been investigated, including the station blackout accident (SBO), the loss of flow accident (LOFA), the loss of feed water accident (LOFWA) and the reactivity insertion accident (RIA). The calculated results have been verified by the RELAP5/Mod3 and the results are satisfactory.

Abstract INCONEL FILLER METAL 52 is a high chromium filler metal for gas-metal-arc and gas-tungsten-arc welding of Inconel Alloy 690 (See Alloy Digest Ni-266, March 1981). Higher chromium is beneficial in resisting stress-corrosion cracking in high purity water for pressurized water reactors and for resistance to oxidizing acids. This datasheet provides information on composition and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as joining. Filing Code: Ni-412.
