Investigation into the Use of Three-Dimensional Modeling Techniques to Assess Internal Flooding Scenarios
This study compared current one-dimensional techniques for analyzing internal flooding in nuclear plants with a three-dimensional method. The flooding scenario, based on an actual nuclear plant, involved flooding in one room, spreading to a stairway and into another room. The research investigated the impact of different locations of the flooding source, combinations of 1-D and […]
