Analysis of Small-Break LOCA at ACME Test Facility Using RELAP5/MOD3
Keyword(s):
The Advanced Core-cooling Mechanism Experiment (ACME) is conducted to investigate the performance of passive core-cooling system (PXS) for the advanced CAP1400 Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR). The small-break LOCA experiments conducted at ACME integrated test facility are simulated with a SNERDI modified version of RE-LAP5/MOD3 code. Several typical SBLOCA test cases are simulated and one case (2 inch cold leg break) is presented in this paper. And the predicted results are compared with the test data to assess the performance of the modified code. The calculated results agree reasonably well with the test data.
