Abstract
A computer analysis of a Semiscale Mod-1 Loss-of-Coolant Experiment (LOCE) was performed using the TRAC-P1A computer program. The main purpose of this analysis was to contribute data for the assessment of the ability of TRAC-P1A to predict blowdown, refill, and reflood phenomena during a postulated Loss-of-Coolant Accident (LOCA). A TRAC-P1A Semiscale Mod-1 system model was created and TRAC-P1A was used to obtain initial conditions for Semiscale Mod-1 LOCE S-04-6. After this initialization, TRAC-P1A was used to simulate the first 60 seconds of this experiment. The results of this simulation are presented and discussed.
