ASTEC V2.2 code validation: Illustrative results and main outcomes

“…A summary of the main lessons that have been drawn from the code-to-data assessment in the field of RCS thermal-hydraulics is provided in the Section 4 of this paper. Details about these numerous and various ASTEC V2.2 CESAR simulations, may be found in [26] [27] [28] [29].…”

“…Besides these three illustrative examples, a summary of the main lessons which have been drawn from the whole code-to-data assessment in the field of core degradation is provided later in Section 4. To get more details about these numerous ASTEC V2 CESAR/ICARE simulations, one may refer to [28] [29] [31] [33] [34].…”

“…A summary of the main lessons that have been drawn from the code-to-data assessment relating to the corium behavior in the vessel lower head is provided in Section 4. To get more details about these ASTEC V2.2 simulations, one may refer to [28] [29] [38].…”

“…A summary of the main lessons that have been drawn from the code-to-data assessment relating to the FP/aerosols behavior in the RCS is provided in Section 4. More information about those ASTEC V2.2 SOPHAEROS analyses are displayed in [28] and [29].…”

“…A summary of the main lessons that have been drawn from the code-to-data assessment related to behavior of FPs and aerosols in the containment, along with their coupling to the thermal-hydraulics, is provided in Section 4. To get more details about these ASTEC V2.2 CPA/SOPHAEROS simulations, one may refer to [28] and [29].…”
