This benchmark is based on a well-defined problem concerning a pressurised water reactor (PWR) main steam line break, which may occur as a consequence of the rupture of one steam line upstream of the...
The benchmark is based on a well-defined problem concerning a PWR main steam line break, which may occur as a consequence of the rupture of one steam line upstream of the main steam isolation valves....
Under the guidance of the Nuclear Science Committee (NSC) , the Working Party on Scientific Issues and Uncertainty Analysis of Reactor Systems (WPRS) studies the reactor physics, fuel performance, ...
The annual Benchmark Workshop of the Working Party on Scientific Issues and Uncertainty Analysis of Reactor Systems was hosted by CEA Cadarache in Aix-en-Provence. During the week of 30 May to 3 June...
This benchmark incorporated full 3-D modelling of the reactor core into system transient codes for best-estimate simulations of the interactions between reactor core behaviour and plant dynamics and ...

Since the beginning of benchmark activities, two benchmark workshops took place. The first was held in Madrid, Spain (June 1998), and the second in Garching near Munich, Germany (March 1999). It was ...
This report provides the specification for the uncertainty exercises of the international OECD/NEA, NRC and NUPEC BFBT benchmark problem including the elemental task. The specification was prepared j...
This report defines the “OECD/NEA/NSC PBMR Coupled Neutronics/Thermal-hydraulics Transient Benchmark of the PBMR-400 Core Design”. This chapter gives more information on the day-to-day management of ...
