Description

In the present study, a Main Steam Line Break (MSLB) sequence has been simulated by means of the thermal-hydraulic (TH) and neutronic codes, TRACE and PARCS respectively. In that sense, UPM research group has developed a full-plant TH model of NuScale for TRACEv5 patch 6, along with a 3D kinetics model of the nodal diffusion code PARCSv332.
