Assessment of performance of BWR passive safety systems in a small break LOCA with integral testing and code simulation

► A SB LOCA test is performed for a natural circulation and passively safe BWR. ► Passive safety systems function as design to mitigate the LOCA. ► Core is not uncovered and containment is not over-pressurized in this LOCA test. ► RELAP5/Mod3.3 successfully simulates this LOCA on facility and plant...
