Assessment of GOTHIC and TRACE codes against selected PANDA experiments on a Passive Containment Condenser

A proposed methodology for passive autocatalytic recombiners sizing and location in LWR containments

“…Other good example is the analyses conducted by (Papini et al, 2014) and carried out in the PANDA facility. In the study focus on the calculations of the condensation phenomena of steam to remove the decay heat on a PCC (Passive Containment Condenser) from ALWR (Advance Light Water Reactor) with a three-dimensional GOTHIC and one-dimensional TRACE models.…”
