Preface

MELCOR is a fully integrated, relatively fast running code that models theprogression of severe accidents in light water nuclear power plants (LWRs). Anentire spectrum of severe accident phenomena is modeled in MELCOR.Characteristics of severe accident progression that can be modeled in MELCORinclude the thermal hydraulic response in the reactor coolant system, reactorcavity, containment, and confinement buildings; core heatup and degradation;hydrogen production, transport and combustion; core-concrete attack; heatstructure response; radionuclide release and transport; and the impact ofengineered safety features on thermal hydraulic and radionuclide behavior.MELCOR is being developed at Sandia National Laboratories for the United StatesNuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to succeed the Source Term Code Package.MELCOR has been designed to facilitate sensitivity and uncertainty analysesand is currently being used to analyze severe-accident progression, sourceterms and associated sensitivities and uncertainties in several NRC-sponsoredresearch programs.

The NRC in its report "Validation and Verification" [1], has established amultilevel approach to code validation. On the first level, past.and near-termfuture experimental results that are suitable for code validation areidentified. On the second level, specific comparisons to relevant experimentaldata with each of the detailed mechanistic codes are performed. On the thirdlevel, the SCTP and MELCOR calculations are compared to the detailedmechanistic code calculations. The cases for, comparison, when possible, willbe a subset of the same cases selected for data comparisons with the detailedmechanistic codes. This selection process will produce code-to-code as well ascode-to-data comparisons for the integrated codes.

This report is a compilation of papers that documents the MELCOR validation andverification results obtained.during 1986. It is intended that a report ofthis nature be published annually. The format used for this report followsthat of a conference proceeding in that individual papers from various authorsare combined into one report. This format was selected in part to encourageparticipation from MELCOR users outside Sandia. The format also has otheradvantages. One is that authors of individual papers can be properlycredited. Another is that different reviewers can be selected for each testaccording to their expertise, and the review load can be distributed. Finally,each test report can be prepared, reviewed, and distributed individually beforethe composite report is published.

Validation and verification loosely refer to the processes undertaken toachieve confidence in computer codes. Fairley [2] indicates that validationaddresses the question, "Are we building the right product?" It is the"process that defines the domains wherein solutions generated by the softwareare acceptable representatives of physical processes." As a practical matter,we principally use the term validation to refer to the comparison of codepredictions with experimental results. The experiments selected for comparisonmay examine separate effects or be integral innature (i.e., several codemodules must be exercised simultaneously in order to simulate integralexperiments).

According to Fairley, verification involves answering the question, "Are webuilding the product right?" He calls it the "process which demonstrates thatthe software correctly performs its stated capabilities." Verification isachieved via detailed inspections of coding and by performing testsspecifically designed to identify defects that may exist in the various codemodules. In this report, verification tests are frequently comparisons ofMELCOR predictions to analytic solutions or to results obtained using otherwell-established codes.

The terms test and testing are used herein to refer to comparisons of MELCORpredictions to results obtained from any other source--experimental, analytic,or other codes. The process of comparing one code's predictions to thoseobtained using other codes is referred to as benchmarking. Figure 1 depictsthe conceptual overlap of the commonly used terms validation, verification,testing, inspection, and benchmarking.

Figure 1. Definition of Terms Related to Validation

All of the tests that are included in this report were conducted atSandia National Laboratories. We believe that- on-site testing (testingat Sandia) is essential to the development of the code. Also, on-sitetesting is needed in order to establish a set of _..andard test problemsthat can be used to check revised versions of the code. However, forformal tests such as those documented in this report, we agree with G. J.Myers of IBM that, "It is impossible to test your own program." (31Therefore, in no case is the developer of a module assigned the task offormally testing that module. In fact, it is expected that tests ofMELCOR conducted outside of Sandia will be included as part of futureMELCOR validation and verification reports.

Another important part of validation and verification philosophy is alsotaken from Myers [31, "Never alter the program to make testing easier."MELCOR has evolved substantially since our validation and verificationefforts began. Although guided in part by the results of earlyvalidation and verification tests, the revisions that have been made toMELCOR over the last year were not done with any specific test in mind.All of the tests were run on established versions of the code. Theversion of the code that was used to perform the test is given in thetitle of each paper.

MELCOR test problems are chosen on the basis of current technical andprogrammatic considerations.* Such considerations include:

1. MELCOR status and suitability of the current version for thetest being considered

2. Availability of information required for preparation of theMELCOR input deck

3. Availability of results from other codes which would provide

bases for comparison

4. Availability of resources required to perform the test

5. MELCOR models which would be invoked and their degree oftesting to date

6. Usefulness of the input deck for future tests orapplications

7. The risk significance of the phenomena or accident sequencemodeled for the test

The structure that has been outlined for this program is designed tominimize duplication of effort, to select tests on the basis ofwell-defined priorities, and to document test results. At the same time,it is recognized that too much rigidity can be inhibitive, and excessivedocumentation requirements can be counterproductive. It is believed thatwith the current structure a balance is gained which maximizes theeffectiveness of the overall validation and verification effort subjectto resource constraints.

The tests that have been selected to date involve phenomena that takeplace in the containment of a light water reactor facility. Thisincludes testing of the Burn Package, the Containment Spray Package, theControl Volume Hydrodynamics Package, the Heat Structure Package, and theRadionuclide Package. The focus has been primarily on containmentphenomena because of the data available in that area and because theCONTAIN code developed at Sandia National Laboratories was available forcomparison,

Some of the input decks used to develop the results presented in thisreport have been selected as standard test problems and run on the latestreleased version, MELCOR 1.6.0. A list of these standard test problemsis given in Appendix A.

MELCOR 1.6 Calculations forAdiabatic Expansion of Hydrogen, Two-cell Flow

C. D,. Leigh and S. E. DingmanSandia National Laboratories

Albuquerque, New Mexico 87185United States of America

Abstract

MELCOR calculations for the adiabatic flow of hydrogenbetween two control volumes have been performed andcompared to the closed form analytical solution. TheMELCOR results differ only slightly from the analyticalsolution. The differences are caused by the use of atemperature dependent heat capacity in MELCOR, whichintroduces some deviation from the ideal gasassumptions.

1. Introduction

This paper compares MELCOR predictions of the adiabatic flow of hydrogenbetween two control volumes to results obtained from an exact analytic solutionfor an ideal gas.

2. Test Description

Given two control volumes which are pressurized with hydrogen and the pressurein Control Volume I is greater than that in Control Volume 2, a flow path isopened between the two control volumes at time zero; hydrogen from the higherpressure control volume expands into the lower pressure control volume untilthe two pressures equilibrate. Assuming adiabatic flow and treating hydrogenas an ideal gas, analytic expressions for the control-volume temperatures andpressures as functions of the mass transferred are:

where T1 , Tlo, P1 9 Plo' ml, and mlo are the temperature, initialtemperature, pressure, initial pressure, mass, and initial mass of the hydrogenin cell 1 and T2 , T2 o, P2, P2., m2i and m2o are the temperature,initial temperature, pressure, initial pressure, mass, and initial mass of thehydrogen in cell 2. Y is the ratio of specific heats.

In this comparison, MELCOR is used to model the two-volume pressureequilibration. MELCOR results for the temperature and pressure in both controlvolumes (as a function of the mass remaining in the donor cell) are compared tovalues calculated with the closed form analytic solution.

3. Model and Case Descriptions

MELCOR was used to model the adiabatic flow of hydrogen between two controlvolumes as described in Section 2. The initial conditions, control volumesizes, and flow path parameters were varied over a wide range to provide athorough test of the MELCOR packages. Six cases were run according to thespecifications given in Table 1.

4. Results

The analytic and MELCOR results for the six cases are compared in Figures 1through 12. These figures show the temperatures and pressures for both cellsas a function of the mass in Cell 1. In all cases, the agreement isexcellent. The slight differences are due in part to to using atemperature-dependent heat capacity in MELCOR which introduces some deviationfrom the gas assumption and in part to the time-step selection.

5. Defects Identified

In previous analyses of this test, oscillatory pressures and temperatures thatdiverged during the transient were calculated by MELCOR. The testerseliminated the oscillations in those calculations by forcing MELCOR to use asmaller time step (the maximum time step size was reduced from 10 s to 1 s).The test has been repeated on a more recent version of MELCOR to determinewhether or not this defect has been corrected and to examine a wider variationin parameters.

The oscillatory behavior that occurred when using an earlier version of MELCORwas not present in any of the cases examined here. As an example, plots of thetransient temperatures, pressures, control volume masses, and system time stepfor Case I are included in Figure 13.

6. Summary and Conclusions

The previous KELCOR defect that produced oscillatory behavior for this test hasbeen corrected. The current version of MELCOR (1.6) produces results thatagree very well with the analytic solution.

MELCOR 1.6 Calculations for aSaturated Liquid Depressurization Test

C. J. ShafferScience and Engineering Associates

Albuquerque, New Mexico 87110United States of America

Abstract

A simple test involving a volume containing saturated waterat high pressure depressurizing into a second larger volumetests MELCOR's ability to predict the depressurization of areactor vessel into its containment. The results show goodagreement between the MELCOR and analytical solutions.

1. Introduction

The analysis of severe accidents involves predicting the depressurization ofthe reactor vessel into its containment. For some accident sequences, thereactor vessel contains significant quantities of high pressure, hightemperature water which will undergo rapid flashing during depressurization.MELCOR's ability to predict this depressurization is tested using a simplemodel with an analytical solution.

2. Test Description

A volume containing saturated water at high pressure is connected to anothervolume containing only a low pressure steam atmosphere by a flow path and aheat structure. The flow path is opened at time zero and the system is allowedto come into pressure and thermal equilibrium. The heat structure whichthermally equilibrates the two volumes is thin enough to be unimportant in theenergy balances. The initial conditions are listed in Table 1 and the systemis shown schematically in Figure 1.

This test was designed with E. about six orders of magnitude smaller thanUo so the structure can be removed from the energy balance.

Using the Keenan and Keyes[l] steam tables and the initial conditions of Table1, the above equations reduce to the following.

Equations 5 and 6 are solved for the steam quality by iterating on pressure.The final values are 1.037 MPa with a saturation temperature of 454.7 K and aquality of 0.297.

4. Results

The MELCOR results are compared to the analytical solution in Table 2. TheMELCOR calculation was run using MELCOR 1.6 on a VAX and the results taken fromthe largest volume (volume 2). At the end of the calculation (3000 seconds),the pressures and temperatures of the two volumes differed by only 0.0003 MPaand 0.28 K.

5. Conclusions

These results show good agreement between MELCOR predictions and the analyticalsolution. They demonstrate MELCOR's ability to predict the depressurization ofa reactor vessel into its containment with the involvement of very rapidflashing of saturated water within the vessel. Even the small differencesnoted in Table 2 could be due to the slight non-equilibrium that exists at theend of the calculation.

MELCOR 1.6 Calculations for theHDR Containment Experiment V44

C. J. ShafferScience and Engineering Associates

Albuquerque, New Mexico 87110United States of America

Abstract

The MELCOR code has been used to simulate the HDRexperiment V44. The HDR-V44 experiment is areactor-scale steam blowdown experiment conducted in1982 by Kernforschungszentrum Karlsruhe (KfK) at thedecommissioned HDR reactor facility near Frankfurt, WestGermany. The MELCOR predicted peak containment pressureis about 24% higher than measured but the longer termpressures are in good agreement. The MELCOR predictedmain compartment temperature peaks about 20 K higherthan measured with good long term agreement. Agreementbetween MELCOR predictions and the experimental resultsis similar to that obtained using the CONTAIN code.

1. Introduction

The containment of a nuclear power plant constitut,&s the final barrier againstthe accidental release of radioactive fission products to the environment. Thereactor-scale steam blowdown experiments conducted at the HDR facility nearFrankfurt, West Germany by Kernforschungszentrum Karlsruhe (KfK) in 1982 [1]contribute to the understanding of the physical processes taking place withinthe containment after a loss-of-coolant accident and expand the data base ofenergy and.mass transfer within a large and complex containment building. TheHDR containment is enclosed by a cylindrical steel shell with an overall heightof 60 meters, a diameter of 20 meters, and a total volume of 11,300 cubicmeters. The primary containment is subdivided by concrete walls into 62subcompartments containing a large amount of internal metallic structures.

Experiment 344 is one of a series of six water and steam blowdown experimentsconducted to simulate full-scale loss-of-coolant accidents. Experiment V44 wasinitiated from saturated steam conditions, and had the highest reactor pressurevessel liquid level with the vessel nearly full. A MELCOR 1.6 calculation hasbeen performed for the HDR-V44 experiment, and the results have been comparedto the experimental data[2] and the CONTAIN calculation for HDR-V44(31.

2. Test Description

The HDR containment is enclosed by a cylindrical steel shell with gn overallheight of 60 m, a diameter of 20 m, and a total volume of 11,300 mi as shownin Figures 1 and 2. An outer concrete containment surrounds the steel shellleaving an annular space between the primary and secondary containments. Theprimary containment is subdivided by concrete walls into 62 subcompartnentswith widely differing and complex shapes containing a large amount of internalmetallic structure. The HDR containment in general has a high ratio of surfacearea to volume, a high steel to concrete surface area ratio, and complexinterior geometries. The reactor pressure vessel which has a central standpipe mounted inside for bottom discharge, blows down into the breaksubcompartment (room 1603) onto a jet impingement plate just downstream of thedischarge pipe. The location of the break is a radius of 6.5 m, an angle of206 degrees, and an elevation of 14.5 m (bottom of the steel containment shellis at an elevation of -10.0 m). The experimental blowdown mass and energy flowrates are shown in Figures 3 and 4. The test instrumentation includes about230 pressure and temperature sensors. The sensors selected for comparison withMELCOR results are listed in Table 1.

3. Computer Model

The MELCOR calculation for HDR-V44 is patterned after a simulation that wasperformed with CONTAIN[3]. The MELCOR computer model consists of 5 volumes, 9flow paths, and 41 heat structures. The heat structures are either steel,concrete, or steel lined concrete.

The experimentally measured blowdown flow shown in Figures 3 and 4 is input asa fog source into volume 1 (break room) with tabular input. The reactor vesselis not modeled.

Volume descriptions are shown in Table 2. Volume 1 consists only of containmentroom 1603 where the vessel break occurs. Volumes 2 and 3 are relatively small

4. Results

The MELCOR results for the containment dome (volume 5) and the break room(volume 1) are compared to experimental data in Figures 5 through 8. Figures 9

and 10 compare the MELCOR results to the corresponding CONTAIN results.

The containment dome pressure calculated by MELCOR is compared in Figure 5 tothe data from pressure sensor CP6202 located near the bottom of control volume5. MELCOR over predicts the peak pressure by about 24% but is in goodagreement after about 1000 seconds.

The MELCOR calculated containment dome temperature is compared in Figure 6 tothe data from sensors CT403, CT406, CT404, CT410, and CT6605 located atelevations 50.0, 45.0, 40.0, 34.0, and 10.7 m, respectively, within controlvolume 5. The 50 m elevation is at the top of the dome. These sensors show a

pronounced temperature gradient with the elevation within volume 5. Forexample, the gradient at 2000 seconds is about 0.6 K/m. An experimental volume

average temperature would probably be between the 34 and 40 m elevationtemperatures. Therefore, MELCOR over predicts the peak temperature by about 20K but again is in good agreement after about 1000 seconds.

The MELCOR break room results are compared in Figures 7 and 8 with pressuresensor CP6311 and temperature sensor C16303 for the first 200 seconds. Thebreak room with a volume of only 280 m , experiences extremely dynamic fluid

flow and heat transfer processes during the reactor vessel blowdown. MELCORover predicts the peak break room pressure by about 22% and the peaktemperature by only 6 K.

The MELCOR and CONTAIN results are compared in Figures 9 and 10. CONTAINresults[3] are available for the containment dome pressure and temperature to1500 seconds. These figures show that MELCOR and CONTAIN results are similarand in quite good agreement. The MELCOR predicted pressure is slightly lowerand closer to the experimental data than CONTAIN. The MELCOR predictedtemperature is slightly higher than CONTAIN and both are within the 34 and 40 m

elevation experimental temperatures after about 900 seconds.

5. Code Limitations Identified

This investigation suggests that the MELCOR heat transfer coefficientcorrelations may not be adequate for dynamic heat transfer during blowdown.The MELCOR calculated heat transfer coefficients during the blowdown are

generally less than 20 W/m2 /K but as high as 200 W/m /K. The experimentaldata [1], [2], [4] shows heat transfer coefficients in room 1606 near the breakroom that range from about 6000 to 28000 W/m /K during blowdown. This same

MEL50R calculation was run with a fixed heat transfer coefficient of 400W/m /K for all heat structures. The result of this run was that the MELCOR

calculated peak pressures and temperatures were reduced to the same generalmagnitude as the experimental data. In summary, HELCOR's heat transfer

coefficient correlations, which are in keeping with currently acceptedcontainment blowdown coefficient correlations, calculate coefficients too smallto predict accurately the very dynamic containment heat transfer duringblowdown.

MELCOR 1.0 Calculations for theBattelle-Frankfurt Gas Mixing Tests

R.K. ByersSandia National Laboratories

Albuquerque, New Mexico 87185United States of America

Abstract

Recent comparisons of MELCOR'predictions to the Battelle-Frankfurt Gas Mixing Experiments are presented. Thesepredictions are for a hydrogen-nitrogen gas mixture thatis injected into a model containment. The MELCOR resultsare compared to the experimental data, the resultsobtained using the HECTR code, and the results obtainedusing the RALOC code. This comparison provides criticaltesting of the MELCOR control volume hydrodynamics packageand the flow path package.

1. Introduction

The Battelle-Frankfurt Mixing Tests were comprised of a series of experimentsin which hydrogen-nitrogen mixtures were injected into a model containment atthe Battelle Institut e.V. Frankfurt [1],[2]. The containment model was aconcrete structure with cylindrical central regions which could be isolatedfrom the upper and asymmetric outer compartments.

2. Test Description

In the experiments considered here, the injected gas was Two parts hydrogen byvolume, introduced at nominally constant rates of I - 2 m /hr (0.15 - 0.3g/s) until the hydrogen amounted to about four percent of the total containmentvolume. Pressures and temperatures of the mixture were very close to those inthe injection region, so the distribution of the injected mixture was governedprincipally by buoyancy forces. The reported experimental data includedvariations in the hydrogen concentrations with time and location.

3. Model Description

MELCOR calculations were performed for tests BF-2 and BF-6, where only theinner regions of the containment were used (the first sixteen cells in Figurela) and for tests BF-10 and BF-19, in which the inner regions could communicatewith the outer compartments (using all twenty-eight cells in Figure la).

2 and 10 uniform initial temperatures in all cells were imposed, while in Tests6 and 19, the initial temperatures in the upper portion of the containment wereapproximately 20 and 30 K higher than at the bottom, respectively. These fourtests had also been simulated with the RALOC[3] and HECTR[4] codes. Thenodalizations used in the MELCOR calculations were, with a few exceptions, thesame as those used with RALOC and HECTR and are shown in Figure lb..The HECTRnodalization for BF-10 and BF-19 involved twenty-two compartments and is shownin Figure lb. Using a similar twenty-two compartment nodalization with MELCORproved inadequate, however. In a calculation performed on a VAX computer withno injection, uniform temperature, and an initial pressure distributioncorresponding to zero flow in a gravity field, mass flows were observed whichwere more than three orders of magnitude larger than the specified injectionrate for the transient analysis. There are two reasons for these flows of thatorder of magnitude. First, in the twenty-two volume model shown in Figure lbthere are discontinuities in the bottom elevations of the volumes. When a cellis connected to adjacent cells with differing bottom elevations, there will bea flow generated due to the acceleration of gravity. In addition, when thereis no liquid present (as in these calculations), the pressure gradients drivingthe flow should be very small. The second reason for the magnitude of theflows seen in the steady-state problem has to do with the repeated applicationof the numerical methods used in MELCOR. In particular, the 32-bit word lengthused on the VAX might produce unacceptable round-off in long calculations.

Therefore, the twenty-eight volume MELCOR model was developed. This model hasfewer discontinuities in cell bottom elevations. In a short calculation withthe CRAY version of MELCOR, the initial temperature for Test 10 was specified,and injection was started after 400 seconds of "steady state". The sameboundary and initial conditions were used for a calculation on a VAX with the22-volume model. The 64-bit word length and more uniform elevations in theCRAY calculation combined to produce much smaller mass flows during thesteady-state period. In addition, the CRAY and VAX calculations producedsignificantly different results for the mass distoibution of hydrogen(percentage differences were between thirty and forty percent for mostlocations). For this reason, all subsequent calculations were performed withthe CRAY version, and the 28-volume nodalization was used for Tests 10 and 19.

4. Results

Calculated results for Tests 2 and 10 (the tests with uniform initialtemperatures) showed good agreement with both experimental data and with theavailable output from RALOC and HECTR analyses. The calculations with thethree codes all used slightly different nodalizations and injection rates, butthe calculated results for all three codes were similar as may be seen inFigures 2 and 3. Local hydrogen concentrations increased at almost constantrates until the end of the injection period, and rapidly achieved valuescorresponding to uniform distribution of the injected hydrogen. RALOC resultscould only be obtained for about the first 10,000 seconds of Test 10; however,the three codes are so similar in the context of these analyses that nosignificantly different predictions should be obtained.

In Tests 6 and 19, the initiAl temperatures in the upper portion of thecontainment were approximately 20 and 30 K higher than at the bottom,

respectively. The choice of initial temperatures for each cell in the modelwas a matter of some ambiguity, and a number of such choices were made inattempting to obtain good agreement between HECTR and experimental results.(51 In those calculations, both the initial temperature distribution and heattransfer between the containment walls and the atmosphere were shown to haveprofound effects on the computed hydrogen distributions. A limited number ofsimilar variations were carried out with MELCOR, but none of the resultscompared very well with the experimental data at all locations.

Calculated and experimental hydrogen concentrations near the injection pointfor Test 6 are shown in Figure 4. Until slightly before the end of injectionat 8000 seconds, both MELCOR and HECTR agree reasonably well with data,although the HECTR result is somewhat smoother than MELCOR's. A decrease inthe concentration in both calculations occurs at about the same time as in themeasured data, and all three curves reach maxima well above the value at whichthe total injected hydrogen would be uniformly distributed. Figure 5 presentsresults at the top center of the containment (Cell 1), and only the HECTRprediction seems to capture at least the character of the data over itsavailable duration. Because the initial temperatures in the upper region arehigher, upward flow is delayed until the buoyancy of the lower density of theinjected gas can overcome the initial density gradient. The rapid increase inthe HECTR result at about 8500 seconds clearly shows this phenomenon. Earlierbehavior in the RALOC and MELCOR curves might also be partly attributable tothis effect. Unfortunately, the data do not extend to a late enough time thatthis "thermal breakthrough" could be experimentally confirmed or denied.

In Test 19, MELCOR seemed to agree best with data for the lower of the outercompartments (Cell 27), as shown in Figure 6, while the HECTR results wereclosest to the somewhat questionable measurement in the upper, outer region(Cell 23), as shown in Figure 7. For concentrations just above the injectionsource (Cell 13), neither RALOC, HECTR, nor MELCOR could be said to agree wellwith the data, as shown in Figure 8. That none of the codes was obviouslysuperior in comparing with data at all locations was also true of the othernonisothermal test, Test 6.

6. Summary and Conclusions

In summary, we found MELCOR to be capable of producing very good agreement withBattelle-Frankfurt hydrogen mixing tests, when initial temperatures wereassumed to be uniform and very nearly equal to the temperature of the injectedgas. We also found that relatively large flows could be calculated for whatshould be a zero-flow steady state, and that these flows can be substantiallyreduced by careful selection of initial pressures, by eliminating elevationdiscontinuities where possible, and by taking advantage of a largecomputer-word length. Finally,.it appears that a fairly large number ofsensitivity studies would be required to obtain good agreement between MELCORand experiment when the initial temperatures are not uniform; this is also trueof at least two other codes, HECTR and RALOC, which are suitable for modelingthis type of mixing test.

MELCOR 1.0 and HECTR 1.5 Calculations forBrowns Ferry Reactor Building Burns

S.E. Dingman and F.E. HaskinSandia National LaboratoriesAlbuquerque, New Mexico 87185

United States of America

Abstract

Following drywell failure in postulated severe accidentsat Browns Ferry, hydrogen burns could occur in the reactorbuilding. MELCOR and HECTR calculations for such burnshave been performed. When using the same flame speed, thetwo codes predict similar pressure responses. However,the magnitude of the pressure rises differs somewhatbecause the preburn conditions are slightly different.These differences are due to different treatments of thecontrol volume gravity head and heat transfer/ condensa-tion in the two codes. Some MELCOR improvements aresuggested.

1. Introduction

This paper compares MELCOR and HECTR [11 calculations of the Brown's Ferrysecondary containment response to hydrogen burns that occur when hydrogen isreleased to the reactor building following drywell failure. Results from bothcodes are discussed, including calculations using HECTR models that are notcurrently available in MELCOR. These additional HECTR calculations arediscussed in this report because they show how the models affect the calculatedresults, indicating a need for new MELCOR models. The input decks for thesecalculations were based on a CONTAIN [2] input deck provided by S. R. Greene ofORNL. Gas source rates were also provided by S. R. Greene.

2. Test Description

This test examines the response of the Browns Ferry reactor building, shown inFigure 1, following failure of the drywell steel shell. Initially, the reactorbuilding is at atmospheric conditions. Following drywell failure, hydrogenfrom the drywell is pushed into the reactor building, such that a hydrogen burp(or series of hydrogen burns) is possible. The pressure rises during theseburns will affect the release to the environment. There is also the potentialfor equipment failure due to temperature rises during the burns. Since thereare no igniters in the reactor building, the threshold for burning cannot bereliably predicted. For the calculations presented herein, it is postulatedthat ignition occurs whenever the hydrogen mole fraction exceeds 8%. Thecorresponding pressure and temperature rises for the burns for various flame

speeds are examined. The effects of radiative heat transfer and fire sprays,which are not currently available in MELCOR 1.0 are examined.

3. Model and Case Descriptions

Both MELCOR and HECTR were used to model the thermal-hydraulic response of theBrown's Ferry secondary containment as described in Section 2. The nodaliza-tion used for MELCOR is shown in Figure 2. The MELCOR input model consists offour compartments, six flow junctions, and 29 heat structures. The compart-ments represent the reactor building, refueling bay, turbine building, and theenvironment. Three flow junctions are included to model blowout panels and theremaining three junctions are included to model leakage to (or infiltrationfrom) the environment. The heat structures are used to model the floors,walls, and ceilings of the reactor building, refueling bay, and turbinebuilding. The HECTR nodalization was as-similar as possible to the MELCORnodalization.

Preliminary calculations showed that the MELCOR and HECTR default flame speedcorrelations gave sufficiently different values when significant quantities ofsteam were present that direct comparison of the calculated results were notmeaningful. The variation in the flame speeds in high steam environments is solarge that neither of the default correlations can be strongly supported.Therefore, rather than using the default correlations, the flame speed wasvaried from I to 10 m/s in both the MELCOR and HECTR calculations. This alsoallowed us to examine the sensitivity of the results to the flame speed. Twoadditional sets of HECTR calculations were rul that included effects of reactorbuilding sprays and radiative heat transfer from the gases to passive heatsinks. The cases considered are listed in Tables I and 2.

4. Results

The pressures calculated by MELCOR and HECTR during the first burn for Case 2(5 m/s, no radiation, no sprays) are compared in Figure 3. Although the burnsbegin at slightly different times in the transiejnt, the codes calculate similarpressure responses after the burns begin. The difference in burn timing willbe discussed below.

The peak pressures as a function of the flame speed for the remaining MELCORand HECTR calculations are shown in Figure 4. For both codes, the peakpressure increases as the flame speed increases, as expected. Differences inthe magnitudes of the increases are due to different treatments of the controlvolume gravity head and heat transfer/ condensation in the two codes. Thesecontributors are discussed in the following paragraphs.

-ravity Head Treatment

MELCOR defines the control volume pressure at the pool/ atmosphere interface(which is basically the bottom of the control volume for these calculations)whereas HECTR defines the control volume pressure at its vertical midpoint.When performing flow calculations, both codes account for the pressure

variation due to differences in the control volume and flow junction elevationsthat result from the gravity head. Thus, the initial pressures specified forthe two codes can be adjusted such that flow rate calculations are not affectedby this modeling difference. However, since the number of moles in a controlvolume is defined by its pressure and temperature, adjusting the pressure tomatch the gravity head, will yield a different initial mole content in the twocodes. We chose to match the gravity head rather than mole content.

When these calculations were performed, it was not possible in either MELCOR orHECTR to account for the gravity head between the control volume and junctionelevations when calculating pressure differences for blowout panels. SinceMELCOR and HECTR use different references for the control volume elevations, itwas not possible to match the blowout panel performance. In MELCOR, theblowout panels between the reactor building and turbine building were blown outbefore the first burn, but in HECTR they did not blow out until the burnstarted. As a result, the preburn temperature in the reactor building waslower in MELCOR than in HECTR. With a lower temperature, more moles ofhydrogen were required to accumulate in the reactor building to yield the 8%ignition -limit. Thus, the first burn occurred later in MELCOR and it resultedin a larger pressure rise.

Heat Transfer / Condensation

The heat flux to surfaces in the reactor building was generally lower in MELCORthan in HECTR. This is mainly due to differences in heat transfercorrelations; an internal flow type of convective heat transfer correlation(Dittus-Boelter) is used in MELCOR, whereas an external flow correlation [1] isused in HECTR. The MELCOR correlation is appropriate for control volumes suchas the reactor vessel, but an external flow correlation should be added forcontainment surfaces.

MELCOR and HECTR also use different methods to determine the convectivevelocity for heat transfer calculations. In MELCOR, the user inputs a controlvolume area which is used in conjunction with an average control volume flowrate to define a velocity. In HECTR, the user specifies a constant velocity,which is used during portions of the calculation in which burns are notoccurring. During burns, HECTR uses the flame speed as the convectivevelocity. There are problems with both approaches. Using a constant velocitydoes not allow for variations during the transient, but using average inflowsand outflows from a control volume to determine the velocity may not give anaccurate representation of conditions within the control volume. For this testproblem, we specified the MELCOR area and HECTR velocity such that thevelocities used were approximately the same.

Although the condensation/evaporation rates were much smaller than theconvective heat transfer rates for these calculations, modeling differencesbetween HECTR and MELCOR could affect results in other comparisons, so theywill be briefly discussed here.

The condensation rates in MELCOR are calculated using

Sh - Nu (Sc/Pr) 1 / 3 (1)

whereas at the time these calculations were performed HECTR used

Sh - Nu (Pr/Sc) 2 / 3 . (2)

To resolve this discrepancy, several different heat transfer texts werereviewed, and it was concluded that the MELCOR treatment is correct. The errorin HECTR has been reported and is being corrected.

The heat flux to surfaces in the reactor building was generally lower in MELCORthan in HECTR, but the surface temperature increases during the burns werehigher in MELCOR. There are too many differences in this calculation todetermine the exact cause of this discrepancy. Possible causes includedifferences in nodalization of the structures and different treatments ofliquid films in the two codes.

Effect of Radiation and Sprays

The HECTR calculations that included radiative heat transfer and sprays weresignificantly different from the calculations discussed above (See Figure 4).

Including radiative heat transfer resulted in lower temperatures at theinitiation of the burn. Thus, there were more moles of hydrogen in the reactorbuilding prior to the first burn than in the cases without radiation, givinglarger pressure rises. The peak pressure is plotted as a function of thepreburn temperature in Figure 5 to illustrate this effect. When sprayinjection was included, the reactor building was cooled even further prior tothe first burn, giving a still larger pressure rise.

MELCOR 1.6 Calculations

A calculation for case 3 was performed using MELCOR 1.6. The heat structurepackage was revised substantially for MELCOR 1.6. The MELCOR 1.6 resultsindicate that the preburn temperature in MELCOR was closer to that of HECTRwithout radiation and sprays, and therefore, the peak pressure is closer to theHECTR calculation. These results are shown on Figure 4 and Figure 5.

5. Summary and Conclusions

The calculations showed good agreement between HECTR and MELCOR results.However, the need for additional test problems that compare results from MELCORand HECTR has been identified. Suggested problems are listed below:

Page 56: MELCOR Validation and Verification 1986 'Papers. · 2012. 11. 29. · MELCOR validation and verification reports. Another important part of validation and verification philosophy

(1) Comparison of pressure and temperature rises during burns starting at thesame initial conditions, including propagation into adjoiningcompartments. The ignition limit and flame speed should be varied over areasonable range.

(2) Comparison of heat transfer rates (with and without condensation) for awide range of temperatures, convective velocities, and steamconcentrations. The same nodalization should be used for the structuresin both codes. Structure surface temperatures should also be compared.

The HECTR calculations that included radiative heat transfer and sprays showedthat these effects can be important. Radiative heat transfer from gas tosurfaces should be included in MELCOR. A spray model is currently available inMELCOR, but the capability to turn on the sprays based on pressure and/ortemperature is not currently available. This should be added such that sprayactuation can be correctly modeled.

MELCOR 1.0 Calculationsfor Cooling of Structures in a Fluid

P. N. DemmieSandia National Laboratories

Albuquerque, New Mexico 87185United States of America

Abstract

MELCOR calculations were performed for the cooling oftwo uniform structures (rectangular and cylindrical)with constant thermal properties and heat transfercoefficients. The temperatures as a function of timefor the structures are compared in this paper to theexact analytical solution and to SCDAP results. Thegood agreement between the MELCOR results, the SCDAPresults, and the exact analytical solution show thatthe finite- difference methods used in the MELCORHeat Structure Package produce accurate results.

1. Introduction

This paper presents a MELCOR calculation for the cooling of two structures in afluid and compares the results of this calculation to both an analytic solutionand the results of the calculation of the same transient using the SCDAPCode[l]. The purpose of this calculation is to test the implementation of theinternal heat conduction methodology of the MELCOR Heat Structure Package (HSP)without internal or surface power sources.

2. Test Description

MELCOR calculations were performed for two uniform solid structures(rectangular and cylindrical) with constant thermal properties and constantsurface heat transfer coefficients. These structures, which were initially at1000 K, were immersed in a fluid at 500 K. Table 1 contains the values of thethermal properties of the material in these structures as well as the otherparameters that were used for the calculation. The material in thesestructures does not correspond to any known material but was chosen to permitcomparison of the results of a MELCOR calculation with an analytic solution andthe results of a SCDAP calculation (1] of the same transient.

It is well documented in heat transfer texts that lumped-heat-capacity (LHC)methods are adequate for transient heat conduction calculations for a structureif its Biot Number is less than 0.1 (2]. The Biot Number for a structure is

6-1

Page 58: MELCOR Validation and Verification 1986 'Papers. · 2012. 11. 29. · MELCOR validation and verification reports. Another important part of validation and verification philosophy

Bi - h (V/A) /k (1)

where

Bi - Biot Number,h - heat transfer coefficient,V - volume of structure,A - surface area of structure, andk - thermal conductivity of material in structure.

A low Biot Number implies that the transfer of energy within the structure israpid relative to the transfer of energy from the structure to the fluid.Thus, the temperature within a structure with a low Biot Number can be assumedto be uniform.

The analytic solution for the temperature of a LHC structure which is immersedin a fluid is 12]:

T - Tf + (Ti - Tf) [exp (-hAt/ciV)] (2)

where

T - uniform temperature of structure,Tf - temperature of fluid,Ti initial temperature of structure,h heat transfer coefficient,I volumetric heat capacity (product of heat capacity and density),

V volume of the structure,A the surface area of the structure,t time.

This solution is obtained by solving the first order linear differentialequation that follows from the global energy balance between the structure andthe fluid under the assumption of a uniform temperature throughout the solid(i.e., the LHC method).

The Biot Number is 0.05 for both rectangular and cylindrical structures withparameters from Table 1. Hence, the temperatures that are calculated by MELCORshould be close to the analytic solution which is given by Equation 2.

3. Model and Calculation Description

The MELCOR code was run for a rectangular and cylindrical heat structure eachwith a Biot Number of 0.05 and a control volume boundary which models atemperature reservoir at 500.0 K. All parameters were chosen to permit anexact comparison of the MELCOR results with the SCDAP results. Since the SCDAPcalculation used a constant time step of 0.0029 s, the MELCOR calculation alsoused this value.

4. Discussion of Results

The results of the MELCOR calculation are compared to the SCDAP results and theanalytic solution. The comparison with the SCDAP results shows the similaritybetween results which are obtained using the finite-difference methodology ofthe MELCOR HSP and the finite-element heat conduction methodology in SCDAP; thecomparison with the analytic solution shows the accuracy of the MELCOR heatconduction methodology.

Figure 1 shows the temperatures for a rectangular and cylindrical structurewhich were calculated by MELCOR and the analytic solution which is given byEquation 2. This figure shows excellent agreement between the MELCOR resultsand the analytic solution. All structures are cooled as expected and havesurface temperatures at the end of this 10-second calculation that are nearlyequal to the fluid temperature of 500.0 K.

A comparison of the MELCOR results to the SCDAP results is given in Table 2.Results are given at 1-second intervals in the table. Excellent agreement isshown between the MELCOR results, the SCDAP results, and the analytic solution.

S. E. DingmanSandia National Laboratories

Albuquerque, New Mexico 87185United States of America

Abstract

MELCOR predictions of the steady state temperaturedistributions resulting from radial heat conductionin annular structures have been compared to the exactanalytical solutions for two sets of boundaryconditions and two cylinder sizes. The agreementbetween MELCOR results and the analytic solution isexcellent in all cases.

1. Introduction

This paper compares MELCOR predictions of the steady state temperaturedistributions resulting from radial heat conduction in annular structures toresults obtained from exact analytic solutions. Two sets of boundaryconditions and two cylinder sizes are considered. In addition, a transientcalculation is performed for a structure with an initially uniform temperatureprofile to test whether MELCOR achieves the correct steady-state temperatureprofile.

2. Test Description

The analytic solution for the temperature profile resulting from radial, steadystate heat conduction in an annular structure given the inner and outer surfadetemperatures is:[l]

MELCOR 1.1 Calculations for aSemi-infinite Solid Heat Structure Test

C. J. ShafferScience and Engineering Associates

Albuquerque, New Mexico 87110United States of America

Abstract

Predictions of the MELCOR heat structure package have beencompared to the exact analytical solution for transientheat flow in a semi-infinite solid with convective bound-ary conditions. Comparisons have been made for steel andconcrete, various thermal conductivities, atmospherictemperatures, node structures and time steps. MELCORresults appear to be more accurate for cases involvingmaterials with low thermal conductivities like concreterather than high thermal conductivities like steel,although in either case the accuracy of the MELCOR resultsis quite good (.3% error in the integrated heat flux forconcrete and .6% error in the integrated heat flux forsteel). Guidelines regarding node spacings in typicalconcrete containment walls have been developed.

1. Introduction

In order to test the MELCOR heat conduction models, MELCOR predictions for heatconduction in a solid are compared to the exact analytical solution for tran-sient heat flow in a semi-infinite solid with convective boundary conditions.This test best simulates the conduction heat transfer in thick walls, in parti-cular, the concrete containment walls of a nuclear power plant during a severeaccident. This test demonstrates the accuracy of the MELCOR heat conductionmodels and provides guidelines for node spacing and time step sizes forconcrete containment walls.

2. The Analytical Solution

Transient heat flow in a semi-infinite solid with convective boundary condi-tions is modeled in MELCOR using a finite slab heat structure of sufficientthickness to approximate a semi-infinite solid. The analytical solution fortransient heat flow in a semi-infinite slab is given in Holman[l] as a functionof the time and the position from the surface given the initial slab tempera-ture, the fluid temperature, the convective heat transfer coefficient, and thethermal properties of the solid (thermal conductivity, specific heat, anddensity) which are all assumed constant. The solution is given by thefollowing equation.

3. Test Descriptions

In the MELCOR calculations for this test, a 10 meter thick heat structure withlogarithmic node, spacing is assumed. The smallest node spacing is on the leftside of the heat slab which is adjacent to a very large control volume. On theleft side of the heat slab, a convective heat transfjr boundary condition isspecified with a heat transfer coefficient of 10 W/m K. An adiabaticboundary condition is specified for the right side of the heat slab.

MELCOR calculations were performed for two different materials (steel andconcrete) and two different fluid temperatures to test MELCOR's ability topredict the analytical solution. Table 1 summarizes the specifications for thefirst three tests. These cases were run with 69 nodes within the first meterof thickness and with 10 second time steps. Case 1 is considered the base casefor this report. The parameters for this case simulate the concrete wall of acontainment building during a severe accidert. Then, the number of nodes usedand the time step sizes were varied to examine the effect on the accuracy ofthe results and to recommend node spacing and time step sizes for severeaccident analyses.

Six different node structures were tested to survey the effect of the nodespacing on calculation results. These node structures were designed to include69 (base case), 35, 18, 11, 8, and 5 nodes in the first meter. Nodes between0.0 and .001 meters were equally spaced while the nodes between 0.001 and 10.0meters were logarithmically spaced according to Equation 3.

Nine'different time step sizes (10, 20, 30, 60, 120, 250, 500, 1000, 2000, and5000 seconds) were run for both the 69 and 18 node structures. The 10 secondand 69 node base case does the most detailed calculation and the 30 second and18 node calculation represents more realistic parameters for a severe accidentcalculation.

4. Results

The MELCOR results are compared to the exact solution as plots of temperaturesversus time and as time integrated surface heat fluxes. All analytical resultsfrom Equations 1 and 2 were calculated with double precision on the CRAYcomputer. The solutions were not calculated beyond 100,000 seconds to avoidround-off errors involving the use of the error function (erf) in Equation 1.All MELCOR test cases were run out to 100,000 seconds and all surface heatfluxes were numerically integrated to 100,000 seconds. A summary of theresults for the integrated heat fluxes for all the test cases is given in Table3.

4.1 The Base Case

Temperature comparison plots for 6 nodes are shown in Figure 1 for the basecase (Case 1 in Table 1). The integrated surface heat flux error is 0.30%.The error is defined as the integrated flux calculated by MELCOR minus the fluxfrom the analytical solution divided by the analytical flux. From the resultsshown in Figure 1, it is difficult to distinguish the differences between the

MELCOR and analytical solutions, so blowup plots are provided in Figures 2 and3. Figure 2 shows the MELCOR predicted surface temperature lagging behind theanalytical temperature by about 0.2 K. This temperature difference isrelatively constant throughout the calculation and is the right order ofmagnitude to cause the error in the integrated heat flux. Figure 3 shows thetemperature at 1 meter into the slab. Other than the 0.2 K surface temperaturedifference, the MELCOR and analytical results compare extremely well.

4.2 Steel Thermal Properties

The steel thermal properties test case (Case 2 in Table 1) is the same as thebase case except that the thermal properties represent steel instead ofconcrete. The results of this test case are shown in Figure 4. The integratedsurface heat flux error is 0.64%. The KELCOR surface temperature lags theanalytical temperature by about 0.5 to 1.0 K, and the temperature at 1 meterlags by about 0.5 K. MELCOR results for this case are not as accurate as forthe base case involving concrete thermal properties. Perhaps a finer nodespacing further in for steel due to the higher thermal diffusivity mightproduce better accuracy.

4.3 High Temperature Test Case

The high temperature case (Case 3 in Table 1) is the same as the base caseexcept that the fluid temperature was 600 K instead of 450 K. The results ofthis case are shown in Figure 5. The integrated surface heat flux error is0.21%. The MELCOR surface temperature lags the analytical temperature by about0.2 to 0.3 K. MELCOR results for this case are slightly more accurate than forthe base case.

4.4 Node Spacing Cases

The results obtained using different nodalizations (69, 35, 18, 11, and 8nodes) are shown in Figures 6 through 9. The 69 node case is the base case andall of the cases were run with 10 second time steps. The node locations areshown in Table 2. The 5 node case yielded large errors (about 25%) and was notincluded in the figures.

The integrated surface heat flux errors for these tests are shown in Figure 6as a function of the number of nodes in the first meter of the slab. Theerrors are large for the cases with few nodes and become more or less asymp-totic for the finer node spacings. Actually the 35 node case has a slightlysmaller error than the 69 node base case. Cases with less than about 18 nodesgive errors in excess of 1%.

The surface temperatures are shown in Figures 7 and 8. The surface tempera-tures for the 35 and 69 node cases are practically identical. It appears thata higher degree of accuracy cannot be obtained by adding more than about 35nodes. The 18 node case calculates reasonable results (0.88% error). The 8node case and the 11 node case have 7.2% and 3.3% errors in the surfacetemperature, respectively.

The temperatures at I meter are shown in Figure 9. The temperature is veryaccurately predicted for the 69 node case, but the other cases deviate somewhatfrom the exact solution.

4.5 Time Step Size Test Cases

Test cases were run for time step sizes of 10, 20, 30, 60, 120, 250, 500, 1000,2000, and 5000 seconds for both the 18 and 69 node structures. The results areshown in Figures 10 through 13.

The integrated surface heat flux errors for these 18 test cases are shown inFigure 10 as a function of time step size. The errors for both node structuresremain within 1% for time steps less than about 100 seconds. Severe accidentcalculations usually use time steps of less than 60 seconds.

The surface temperature results for the 69 node cases using 10, 20, 30, 60, and120 second time steps are shown in Figures 11 and 12. In Figure 11, the curvescannot be distinguished from one another, but Figure 12 shows an expandedsection. The expanded plot shows "oscillations" in the surface temperatureswhich increase in amplitude with increasing time step size. These oscillationsare somewhat smaller for the 18 node cases than for the the 69 node cases. Forthe 69 node cases, only the 10 second time step case is without observableoscillations whereas for the 18 node cases, the 10, 20, and 30 second time stepcases are without oscillations. These oscillations do not seem to have mucheffect upon the integrated surface heat fluxes for the time step sizes ofpractical interest but could become important-in calculations with convectiveheat transfer correlations that are sensitive to the surface temperature.

Figure 13 shows the temperatures at 1 meter into the slab. These temperaturesare predicted reasonably well with time step sizes up to 120 seconds. The 69node cases show better agreement with the analytical results than the 18 nodecases.

4.6 Practical Parameters

The base case calculation with 69 nodes and a 10 second time step size waschosen to give a very accurate prediction of the exact solution. In theinterest of keeping computer run times reasonable (around 200 CPU), realisticsevere accident analysis calculations are more likely to use something like the18 nodes and 30 second time step size case for predicting the heat transferinto the containment walls. Figure 14 compares both of these cases with theanalytical solution for an expanded section of the surface temperature. Theintegrated surface heat flux errors for these two cases are 0.30% and 0.92% forthe 69 and 18 node cases, respectively. The surface temperatures of both of

-these calculations are apparently free of the oscillations shown in theprevious section.

User judgement must be exercised in selecting the node spacing and time stepsizes for a particular calculation. The need for accuracy must be balancedagainst the cost of the run.

coefficient to the surface temperature. For instance, if the convective heattransfer coefficient is a function of a small temperature differential betweenthe fluid and the wall temperatures then a relatively small error in thesurface temperature might yield a much larger error in the resultingcoefficient and heat flux.

5. Summary

Predictions of the MELCOR heat structures package heat conduction models arecompared to the exact analytical solution for transient heat flow in asemi-infinite solid with convective boundary conditions. The semi-infinitesolid is modeled in MELCOR as a 10 meter thick heat slab with logarithmic nodespacing. The accuracy of the heat conduction models is demonstrated and nodespacing and time step sizes are recommended for the modeling of the concretecontainment walls in a severe accident analysis calculation of a nuclear powerplant.

The results of three standard test cases compared relatively well with theanalytical solution. Cases modeling concrete compared more closely than thecase modeling steel. The best KELCOR predicted surface temperature forconcrete lags the exact solution by about 0.2 K resulting in an error of about0.3% in the time integrated surface heat flux. The temperature lag for steelwas about 0.5 to 1.0 K resulting in an error of about 0.6%.

Node structures ranging from 5 to 69 nodes in the first meter of the wall weretested to survey the effect of node spacings on calculational results. Thecalculational errors are unacceptably large for the cases with few nodes andbecome more or less asymptotic for the finer node spacings. Cases with lessthan about 18 nodes in the first meter of the wall predict errors in excess of1%.

Test cases were run for time step sizes ranging from 10 to 5000 seconds forboth the 18 and 69 node structures. The errors in the integrated surface heatfluxes for both node structures remain within 1% for time step sizes belowabout 100 seconds. Most severe accident calculations use time step sizes o'less than 60 seconds. The surface temperatures for runs up to about 120seconds follow the analytical solution fairly closely (within about 0.5 K),however, small oscillations do occur and the amplitude of the oscillationsincreases with the size of the time step. The oscillations are somewhatsmaller for the 18 node cases than for the 69 node cases indicating arelationship between the time step size and the size of the surface nodes.These oscillations appear to have little effect upon the integrated surfaceheat fluxes for the time step sizes of practical interest, but could becomeimportant in calculations with convective heat transfer correlations sensitiveto the surface temperature.

The ability of MELCOR to predict the exact solution depends on the fineness ofthe node spacing and the time steps, and the precision of the computer. Theinaccuracies in the standard test cases are stable and uniform throughout thecalculations indicating the soundness of the MELCOR numerical models. The nodespacing and time steps have been reduced to a fineness such that additionalfineness does not increase the accuracy. The remaining inaccuracies then are

probably caused by computer round-off errors. In fact, the 35 node case

results were slightly more accurate than the 69 node case implying that a use

of more than 69 nodes will increase the round-off errors. A computer with more

precision should calculate even better results.

While the exact analytical solution was predicted reasonably accurately with

the case using 69 nodes and 10 second time steps (the CPU time is about 1500

seconds for these runs), realistic severe accident analysis calculations aremore likely to use something like the 18 nodes and 30 second time steps for

predicting the heat transfer into the containment walls (the CPU time is about

200 seconds for these runs). The integrated surface heat flux errors for the 69

and 18 node cases are 0.30 and 0.92%, respectively, and both are apparentlyfree of the oscillations.

Cases 1 and 14 were rerun on MELCOR 1.6 with no significant differences from

the results presented here.

MELCOR 1.5 Calculationsfor ABCOVE Aerosol Experiments AB5, AB6, and AB7

C. D. LeighSandia National Laboratories

Abstract

The MELCOR code was used to simulate the ABCOVE Aerosolexperiments AB5, AB6, and AB7. In t ese tests, a dry sodiumaerosol was introduced into an 850 m vessel and the aerosolbehavior was monitored. Single and double component aerosolswere used. Other codes have been used to simulate these testsincluding the CONTAIN[1] code at Sandia National Laboratories.Results from MELCOR were compared both to the experimental dataand to the CONTAIN results. MELCOR results were nearlyidentical to the CONTAIN results. Code predictions for thesuspended mass of aerosol track the experimental data to theend of the experiment to within a factor of two or three.Final predictions of the mass deposited by settling agreewithin an 11% error for all tests. In AB5, code predictionsfor the mass of material deposited by plating agree with theexperimental data with a 12% error. However, in the othertests, the codes do not give accurate results for the amount ofmaterial deposited on the walls at the end of the test. Theseerrors are probably related to the turbulence in the vesselwhich may cause inertial impaction. Impaction is not modeledin either of the codes.

1. Introduction

The Aerosol Behavior Code Validation and Evaluation (ABCOVE) program was acooperative effort between the USDOE and the USNRC to validate aerosol behaviorcodes under the conditions found in an LMFBR containment during a severe acci-dent. The expected aerosol suspended mass concentrations in an LMFBR accidentexceed that expected of particulates in an LWR accident. Nevertheless, theABCOVE experiments are also of interest for LWR modeling. The sphericalcluster structure of the sodium oxide aerosols is similar to that expected ofparticulate aerosols in a steam environment. A series of validation experi-ments was conducted at the Containment Systems Test Facility (CSTF) at HanfordEngineering Development Laboratory (HEDL). Six codes were involved in a codecomparison to these experiments including the CONTAIN[Il code run at SandiaNational Laboratories. This test is a comparison of MELCOR results for theABCOVE tests, AB5, AB6, and AB7 to both the experimental results and to theresults from the CONTAIN code calculations. Both MELCOR and CONTAIN

CONTAIN incorporate MAEROS(2] in order to model aerosol behavior. However, thethermal hydraulic coupling is different in the two codes. The primary differ-ence being that CONTAIN (at the time) used a user-specified thermal gradientwhen calculating the thermophoretic deposition, whereas MELCOR uses a thermalgradient calculated internally from the structure heat flux and the gas thermalconductivity. (CONTAIN has since been modified and follows the MELCORapproach). The input deck for these calculations is based on a CONTAIN inputdeck provided by K.K. Murata of Sandia National Laboratories (SNL). Thesecalculations were most recently run on MELCOR 1.5.[3]

2. Test Descriptions

In all three tests, AB5, AB6 and AB7, the behavior of aerosols injected into aclosed 850 m3 vessel was examined. In Figure 1, a schematic diagram of thevessel is given. AB5 was a single component aerosol test while AB6 and AB7were multicomponent aerosol tests. In the AB5 test, sodium oxide aerosols weregenerated from a sodium spray fire at a rate of 445 g/s for 885 seconds. Inthe AB6 test, two aerosol sources were provided to the vessel. One source, asimulated fission product aerosol, NaI, was generated by an ex-vessel vaporizer-condenser. The other source, NaOx, was generated by a sodium spray fire. Therelease rate of NaOx from the spray fire was approximately five hundred timesthat of the NaI, and the NaOx source was continued well past the NaI sourcecutoff. This overlap in the source rates was used in order to demonstrate the"washout" of the NaI by the continuing NaOx aerosol. The AB7 test was also atwo component aerosol test; the NaI was generated by an ex-vessel vaporizer-condenser, and the sodium oxide was provided by a sodium pool fire. In the AB7test, the quantity of NaOx released during the sodium pool fire was low, andall of the NaOx was reacted to sodium hydroxide, NaOH, by moisture in thevessel atmosphere. The NaI was released into the vessel atmosphere after theend of the sodium pool fire so that there was no overlap in the sources.

2. Computer Modeling of the ABCOVE Tests

The MELCOR calculations for AB5, AB6, and AB7 are based on the simulation thatwas originally performed with CONTAINI3]. The aerosol sources were modeled byspecifying lognormal source rates into the volume as indicated in Table 1.

Fxr these t ree tests, the plating area and settling area used were about 750m and 88 m respectively. For the CONTAIN calculations, a fittingprocedure using the results of earlier experiments (AB1, AB2, and AB3) was usedto obtain values for the agglomeration and dynamic shape factors[3]. Thevalues obtained were 1.5 for the dynamic shape factor and 2.25 for theagglomeration shape factor. These values were used for the MELCORcalculations.3 A material density of 2500 kg/m? was assumed in AB5 and AB6,and 2130 kg/m was a~s~ued in AB7. The turbulent agglomeration coefficientwas set at 1.OE-03 mz/sj for all three tests and the diffusional boundarylayer thickness was set at 1.OE-5 m. A summary of these values is given inTable 2.

One control volume and two heat structures (one representing vertical surfacesand one representing horizontal surfaces) were specified in the KELCORsimulation of these tests. In the experiments, the vessel temperature andpressure were monitored through time at approximately forty locations. For thecalculations performed with the CONTAIN code, there was no attempt made tosimulate the experimental temperature and pressure profiles. AB5 and AB7 weremodeled with a constant temperature and pressure assumption, and AB6 wasmodeled with a series of step jumps in temperature.

To achieve a step temperature profile with MELCOR for AB6, heat was addediDcrementally to the vessel. The heat, Q, necessary to achieve a step jump,AT, in the vessel temperature is:

Q( AT) - cvV p AT (1)

where c is the constant volume specific heat of the gas (assumed constant in

this caYculation), V is the vessel volume, and p is the density of the gas.

In CONTAIN (as in the stand-alone version of MAEROS), the thermal gradient usedto calculate the thermophoretic deposition rate is an input quantity, whereasin MELCOR it is not. In order to obtain a constant thermal gradient at asurface in MELCOR, one must specify a constant heat flux boundary conditionthat will result in the appropriate thermal gradient according to the equation:

VT k - - q (2)

where "VT is the thermal gradient at the surface (K/m), k is the gas thermalconductivity (W/m K), and q is the heat flux at the surface (W/m ). Thevalue of k used in the MELCOR radionuclide package is the thermal conductivityof air provided by the material properties package as a function oftemperature. To maintain the energy content of the control volume and heatstructure, an equal heat flux must be specified at the other side of the heatstructure to transfer the energy back into the control volume.

3. Results

Figures 2 through 7 show the time dependent results of the MELCOR and CONTAINcalculations as well as available experimental data for experiments ABS, AB6,and AB7 respectively. Results are shown for the suspended aerosol mass, themass deposited (settled) on the floor , and the mass deposited (plated) on thewalls. End of experiment values for the deposited masses for MELCOR, CONTAIN,and the stand-alone version of'MAEROS are compared to the experimental resultsin Table 3.

For AB5, CONTAIN and MELCOR are very close in their predictions of thesuspended mass. Excellent agreement is apparent during the source and up tothe time when the concentrations are reduced by a factor of 10- . Agreementwith experimental data to the end of the experiment where concentrations are

reduced by 10-6 are within a factor of two to three. MELCOR and CONTAINpredictions of the settled 'mass also agree. Time dependent experimentalresults are not available for the settled mass. However, the total depositionon horizontal surfaces was measured at the end of the test and was 382.0kg[5]. CONTAIN and MELCOR predict a settled mass of aerosol deposited on thefloor of 370.5 kg. The percentage error in the MELCOR calculation for thesettled mass in AB5 is 3%. The amount of material deposited on the walls inAB5 is 17.0 kg in the CONTAIN calculation and 16.1 kg in the MELCORcalculation. 18.3 kg of aerosol measured on vertical surfaces at the end ofthe experiment is reported by Hilliard et al.[5]. The MELCOR code predicts themass deposited on the wall in AB5 with about a 12% error when compared to theexperimental results and a 7% error when compared to the stand-alone MAEROS.

In AB6, CONTAIN and MELCOR are very close in their predictions of the NaOxsuspended mass. Both codes slightly overpredict the NaOx suspended mass duringthe source and at later times when the suspended concentration has been signifi-cantly reduced. Code predictions are in excellent agreement with the experi-mental results between 1.0E4 and 1.0E5 seconds. The behavior of the suspendedmass of Nal in AB6 differs significantly from the code predictions at latetimes. Both MELCOR and CONTAIN predict a rapid, continuous decay in the Nalconcentration after the source has been cut off. The experimental results showthat the rapid decay lasts only a short while before slowing down to a ratethat is approximated by uniform coagglomeration[6). Hilliard[6] suggests thatphenomena not modeled by any of the codes may have caused this behavior. Hesuggests two possibilities: resuspension of previously deposited material orvaporization of the Nal (since the spray fire continues throughout the test)followed by condensation on the smaller NaOx particles (which causes a shift inthe particle size distribution to smaller sizes that remain suspended longer).In addition, two mixing cells developed in the containment atmosphere duringthe test which are not modeled in any of the calculations. Once again, the twocodes agree in their predictions of the settled and plated masses. Timedependent experimental results are not available for these quantities.However, Hilliard[6) reports a settled mass of 33' 0 kg. MELCOR predicts asettled mass of 371.1 kg and CONTAIN predicts 362.5 kg. The MELCOR result hasan 11% error. The experimental results indicate that 38.0 kg of aerosol wereplated on vertical surfaces during the test. MELCOR predicts a plated mass of6.7 kg and CONTAIN predicts 9.0 kg. The MELCOR value represents an 83% errorwhen compared to experimental results and a 6% error when compared to thestand-alone MAEROS. None of the codes involved in the comparison were able toadequately predict the plated mass for this test. The testers conclude thatthe primary plating mechanism in this test was impaction, not thermophoresis,which is a phenomenon that none of the codes can predict.

For AB7, CONTAIN and MELCOR are very close in their predictions of thesuspended aerosol masses and show good agreement with the experimental data.During the source and at later times when the concentrations have beensignificantly reduced, the codes slightly overpredict the suspended masses ofboth components. Both MELCOR and CONTAIN predict higher values (3.3 kg byCONTAIN and 3.2 by MELCOR) for the settled mass than Hilliard [5] who reportsthat a total of 3.1 kg is deposited on upward facing horizontal surfaces.The MELCOR prediction has a 3% error. Both MELCOR and CONTAIN predict a massdeposited on the wall of .02 kg. It is apparent that neither CONTAIN norMELCOR adequately predicts deposition on the wall for this test since Hilliard(5] reports that .24 kg of aerosol is deposited on vertical surfaces in this

test. This is a 90% error, however, the MELCOR results do agree withstand-alone MAEROS predictions. None of the codes involved in the comparisonwas able to adequately predict the plated mass. The testers suggest that theseerrors may be caused by inertial impaction in the vessel.

4. Code Limitations Identified

Currently in MELCOR, the suspended mass of an individual component is notavailable as an output variable although the MELCOR calculation ismulticomponent. It is extremely important for LWR applications that theaerosol calculations be multicomponent[91, and AB6 and AB7 are ideal tests ofthe multicomponent nature of the MELCOR code. However, the comparison is verydifficult because the sus ended mass of each component is not available as anoutput variable. Since MELCOR does provide the suspended radioactive mass asan output variable, for AB6 and AB7, MELCOR was run first by specifying thatall of the NaOx (component 1) was-radioactive, and the radioactive mass (themass of NaOx) was plotted.. Then MELCOR was rerun specifying that all of theNal was radioactive, and the radioactive mass (the mass of Nal) was plotted.This was a cumbersome process, and the need to output the suspended mass ofindividual components has been reported to the code developers.

While performing these calculations with the MELCOR code several defects wereidentified. First, instabilities in the heat structure package were identifiedand corrected. Second, the need for providing the diffusional boundary layerthickness as a user input was identified and the input parameter was added.Third, a defect in the logarithmic plotting option was identified andcorrected. Finally, it was reported that the mass median diameter of theaerosol size distribution is a variable of interest in aerosol tests, and itshould be made available as an output variable. This option has not yet beenadded.

5. Summary and Conclusions

These MELCOR calculations showed good agreement with CONTAIN predictions forthe ABCOVE.aerosol tests AB5, AB6, and AB7. All quantities predicted by thetwo codes agreed very well although neither code adequately predicted theplated masses in AB6 and AB7.

In the future, it would be interesting to compare the time dependent behaviorof the mass median diameter of the aerosol size distribution. However, this isnot an output variable that is available in MELCOR at this time.

Appendix A

MELCOR Standard Test Problems from 1986

This appendix contains brief descriptions of the standard tests that have beendeveloped in association with this report. One standard test has beendeveloped from each paper. Appendix B contains copies of the input files forthe tests, and Appendix C contains copies of the comparison plots. Requestsfor additional information should be directed to the'editor of this report.

STOOl: Adiabatic Expansion of Hydrogen, Two-Cell Flow

This test is Case 5 from the paper, "MELCOR 1.6 Calculations for AdiabaticExpansion of Hydrogen, Two-cell Flow". Two control volumes are pressurizedwith hydrogen. The pressure in control volume 1 is 2.E5 Pa and the pressure inc~ntrol volume 2 is l.E5 Pa. Both volumes are 1000 m3 and at 300 K. A 50mi flow path is opened between the volumes at time zero and they are allowedto equilibrate.

ST002: Radial Conduction in Annular Structures

This test is Case 4 from the paper, "MELCOR 1.0 Calculations for RadialConduction in Annular Structures". An annular structure initially at 600 K isexposed to a 550 K environment on its outer surface and a 600 K environment onits inner surface. The structure is allowed to reach its steady statetemperature distribution.

STO03: Cooling of a Structure in a Fluid

This test is taken from the paper, "MELCOR 1.0 Calculations for Coolirg o.Structures in a Fluid". Two uniform structures, a rectangular slab and acylinder, are submersed in a fluid that is at 500 K. Both structures areinitially at 1000 K and have constant thermal properties and constant surfaceheat transfer coefficients. The temperature of each solid as a function oftime is noted.

STOO4A and STOO4B: Semi-Infinite Heat Structure Test

This test is Case 1 from -the paper, "MELCOR 1.1 Calculations for aSemi-infinite Solid Heat Structure Test". This is a test of transient heatflow in a semi-infinite solid with convective boundary conditions. This caseinvolves a 10 m thick concrete structure. The fluid temperature is 450 K, andthe initial temperature of the structure is 300 K. For ST004A, there are 18nodes in the first meter of the structure, and it is run with 30 second timesteps. For ST004B, there are 69 nodes in the first meter of the structure, andit is run with 10 second time steps.

ST005: Saturated Liquid Depressurization Test

This test is taken from the paper, "MELCOR 1.6 Calculations for a SaturatedLiquid Depressurization Test". A volume containing saturated water at highpressure is depressurized into a second larger volume. The two volumes areconnected by a flow path and a heat structure.

ST006: Browns Ferry Reactor Building Burns

This test was taken from the paper, "MELCOR 1.0 and HECTR 1.5 Calculations forBrowns Ferry Reactor Building Burns". It is a test of the reactor buildingresponse to hydrogen burns that occur when hydrogen is released to thebuilding. This is an integrated test that involves three control volumes andsix flow paths.

STO07: HDR Steam Blowdown Test

This test was taken from the paper, "MELCOR 1.6 Calculations for the HDRContainment Experiment V44". It is a test of the containment response to thedepressurization of a reactor pressure vessel. This is an integrated test thatinvolves five control volumes and nine flow paths.

ST008: ABCOVE Aerosol Experiment Test AB6

This is Case 2 from the paper, "MELCOR 1.5 Calculations for ABCOVE AerosolE periments ABS, AB6, and AB7". Two aerosol sources are introduced into an 850mi volume. The two aerosols are Nal and NaOH. The Nal is introduced firstwith a small source rate. Following that, the NaOH is introduced with a largesource rate. The NaOH source is continued well after the NaI source isdiscontinued. This is a dry aerosol problem.

ST009A and ST009B: Battelle-Frankfurt Gas Mixing Experiments

These are Case 2 and Case 19 from the paper, "MELCOR 1.0 Calculations for theBattelle-Frankfurt Mixing Tests". In both tests a hydrogen-nitrogen mixture isinjected into a model containment. The containment in Case 2 is a sixteencompartment model; the containment in Case 19 is a twenty-eight volume model.Calculations for this test are normally run on the Cray.
