Abstract EN

To prevent total meltdown of the uncovered and overheated core, the reflooding with water is a necessary accident management measure.

Because these actions lead to the generation of hydrogen, which can cause further problems, the related phenomena are investigated performing experiments and computer simulations.

In this paper, for the experiments of loss of coolant accidents, performed in Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe, QUENCH-03 and QUENCH-06 are modelled using RELAP5/SCDAPSIM and ASTEC codes.

The performed benchmark allowed analysing different modelling features.

The recommendations for the model development are presented.
