Summary
An analytical model is presented for the calculation of ice melt and long-term pressure transients in the ice condenser reactor containment after a loss-of-coolant accident. The method applies conservation equations to control volumes used to simulate spatial variation. The control volumes represent the functionally distinct compartments of the ice condenser containment. Uniform pressure and saturated steam conditions are assumed throughout the containment in order to reduce the computing time for a given problem. Several required quantities are assumptions based on conclusions derived from Ice Condenser Test Facility test results. The code is flexible enough to analyze the effectiveness of the engineered safeguard systems, including internal and external sprays and a sump water recirculation cooling system. Temperature gradients in, and heat absorption by, the containment structure are also considered.
