Description

Study involving the modeling of various SGTR accident scenarios (including MSGTR) using the MELCOR thermal-hydraulic code. The analysis focuses on quantifying the potential radiological release and assessing the risk of core degradation. The results aim to enhance the understanding of accident progression and core damage risk associated with tube rupture scenarios.
