The EC- (European Commission) EURATOM TACIS project 30303 aims at safety evaluation of VVER-1000 (Russian Design, Gidropress, pressurized water reactor) and of RBMK (Russian design, NIKIET, boiling water cooled, graphite moderated nuclear reactor). Safety improvements for those reactors are also expected from the project. About 50 scientists of various nationalities (primarily Russian and Italian) contributed to the project for around 5 years. A variety of experimental and computational activities was performed. Several hundred reports were issued within a suited Quality Assurance (QA) framework and many scientists contributed to each report (only responsible authors identified here). The present document deals with the evaluation of the Critical Heat Flux (CHF) in the boiling channels of RBMK characterized by a 8m active length and (nearly) triangular pitch of rods.

Abstract
The EC- (European Commission) EURATOM TACIS project 30303 aims at safety evaluation of VVER-1000 (Russian Design, Gidropress, pressurized water reactor) and of RBMK (Russian design, NIKIET, boiling water cooled, graphite moderated nuclear reactor). Safety improvements for those reactors are also expected from the project. About 50 scientists of various nationalities (primarily Russian and Italian) contributed to the project for around 5 years. A variety of experimental and computational activities was performed. Several hundred reports were issued within a suited Quality Assurance (QA) framework and many scientists contributed to each report (only responsible authors identified here). The present document deals with the evaluation of the Critical Heat Flux (CHF) in the boiling channels of RBMK characterized by a 8m active length and (nearly) triangular pitch of rods.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
