Key Points" NIST test data plays an important role in validating NRELAP5 and providing
integrated plant response information on key phenomena and processesassociated with the NuScale plant:
- natural circulation normal operation
- natural circulation passive core cooling systems
- reactor pressure vessel (RPV), containment (CNV), and cooling pool interactions
- emergency core cooling system (ECCS) operation/actuation
" Instrumentation is incorporated in NIST to characterize targeted phenomena.
- significant 3X increase in instrumentation planned for NIST-1 upgrade
• A decay heat removal system (DHRS) will be added to NIST-1 to addressimportant PIRT phenomena and to characterize system interaction effects.
* Final LOCA PIRT rankings will be informed by testing and analysis.

Scaling Introduction
" NuScale has used its Dynamical System Scaling (DSS)Methodology to obtain the geometric and operatingparameters for the NIST-1 facility.
" This NIST-1 scaling analysis provides an application ofDSS that can be used to support the review andapproval of its scaling methodology topical report.
Dynamical System Scaling (DSS) Methodology, NP-TR-1010-867-P, Revision I was issued to the NRC in February 2011 (ML110680401, Project 0769).
" NIST-1 Scaling Analysis report will be issued to NRC inDecember 2014 as a Technical Report.

NIST-1 Facility Scaling Analysis Report Objectives
To develop a properly scaled test facility, the following specificobjectives must be met for each operational mode of interest.
" The thermal hydraulic processes that should be modeled must beidentified.
" The similarity criteria that should be preserved between the testfacility and the full-scale prototype must be obtained.
" The priorities for preserving the similarity criteria must be established.
" Specifications for the test facility design or modifications must beprovided.
" Biases due to scaling distortions must be quantified.
" The critical attributes of the test facility that must be verified to meetQuality Assurance requirements must be identified.

Lessons Learned continued
" No core uncovery measured in test or predicted for anyLOCA scenarios
" Steam condensation in the containment is not of highimportance relative to core cooling figures of merit
- 2X change in HTCO value changes peak pressures by -5%
" RELAP5-3D is an appropriate tool in predicting theintegral system behavior of NIST
- contains the essential models and correlations to represent theimportant phenomena and processes occurring in NIST
- limited code development needed for NIST
- few special process models required (i.e., no accumulators, no
separators, no primary pump)

Key Points
" A major test facility upgrade is in progress that will be complete at theend of this calendar year with testing resuming in February 2015.
" This upgrade aligns the NIST test facility with the NuScale reactordesign.
* Additional instrumentation will be included to characterize thosephenomena and processes identified as important in the LOCA PIRTand targeted for evaluation in the NIST facility.
" NuScale's proprietary Dynamical System Scaling methodology wasused to
- obtain the scaling factors used to design the NIST upgrade
- provide similitude for key LOCA phenomena and processes
- identify and minimize testing distortions
" Final LOCA PIRT rankings will be informed by NIST testing andanalysis.

Insights and Lessons Learned
" RELAP5-3D contains the essential models and correlations necessary torepresent the important phenomena and processes observed at NIST thatinfluence integral system behavior.
" One-dimensional test facility modeling using RELAP5-3D captures the test
data trends and magnitude.
}}3(a) and (b)
" Core uncovery has not occurred for any design basis LOCA scenarios testednor has it been predicted. Accordingly, core heat-up for LOCAs is notanticipated.
" Steam condensation heat transfer in the containment is well predicted by theexisting RELAP5-3D correlation up to 270 psig.
