Analyses on the recriticality and sub-critical boron concentrations during late phase of a severe accident of pressurized water reactors
The potential for recriticality and sub-critical boron concentrations is analyzed during the relocation of the fuel rods in the assembly, which we call late phase of a severe accident, via coupling between MELCOR and whole-core Monte Carlo analyses by Serpent 2. The recriticality, initiated during t...
