A Coupled Calculation Suite for Atucha II Operational Transients Analysis by Oscar Mazzantini, Miguel Schivo, Julián Di Césare, Ricardo Garbero, Matías Rivero, Germán Theler

“…In this direction, a suite of coupled best-estimate specific calculation codes was developed to analyse the behaviour of the Atucha II nuclear power plant in Argentina. The developed tool includes three-dimensional spatial neutron kinetics, a channel-level model of the core thermal hydraulics with subcooled boiling correlations, a one-dimensional model of the primary and secondary circuits including pumps, steam generators, heat exchangers, and the turbine with all their associated control loops, and a complete simulation of the reactor control, limitation, and protection system working in closed-loop conditions as a faithful representation of the real power plant. …”
