AER Working Group D on VVER Safety Analysis – Report of the 2011 Meeting

Kliem, S.

The AER Working Group D on VVER reactor safety analysis held its 20th meeting in Stockholm, Sweden, during the period 12-13 April, 2011. The meeting was hosted by the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) and was held in conjunction with the third workshop on the OECD/NEA Benchmark for the Kalinin-3 VVER-1000 NPP and the fifth workshop on the OECD Benchmark for Uncertainty Analysis in Best-Estimate Modelling (UAM) for Design, Operation and Safety Analysis of LWRs. Altogether 18 participants attended the meeting of the working group D, 12 from AER member organizations and 6 guests from non-member organization. The co-ordinator of the working group, Mr. S. Kliem, served as chairman of the meeting.

The meeting started with a general information exchange about the recent activities in the participating organizations.

The given presentations and the discussions can be attributed to the following topics:

  • Code validation and benchmarking including the calculation of the OECD/NEA Benchmark for the Kalinin-3 VVER-1000 NPP and 7th AER Dynamic Benchmark
  • Thermal hydraulic analyses
  • Safety analyses and code developments
  • Future activities

A list of the participants and a list of the handouts distributed at the meeting are attached to the report. The corresponding PDF-files can be obtained from the chairman.
