“…The comparison revealed an overestimation of the heat transfer for higher pressures. Later on, Aglar [70] further analyzed the effects of non-condensable gases on in-tube condensation and compared simulations with three experimental test facilities data. They found that RELAP5 has a deviation in the range of 50% to 150% for the heat transfer coefficient.…”

Passive safety systems are an important feature of currently designed and constructed nuclear power plants. They operate independent of external power supply and manual interventions and are solely driven by thermal gradients and gravitational force. This brings up new needs for performance and reliably assessment. This paper provides a review on fundamental approaches to model and analyze the performance of passive heat removal systems exemplified for the passive heat removal chain of the KERENA boiling water reactor concept developed by Framatome. We discuss modelling concepts for one-dimensional system codes such as ATHLET, RELAP and TRACE and furthermore for computational fluid dynamics codes. Part I deals with numerical and experimental methods for modelling of condensation inside the emergency condensers and on the containment cooling condenser while part II deals with boiling and two-phase flow instabilities.
