It is not clear that 3AW100716A accounts fbr the inability of very small breaks to remove decay heat from the reactor M ="*

Such 4amh414ty system as fast as it is generated in the core.can lead to a pressure which irgesses the fluid blowdown rate while r A"ad*! D the high pressure injection rate.of water inventory from the pr 4

would otherwise be predicted during blowdown.

I of &=4da'aing this effect would be a lower reactor vessel 1

water level fbr a longer period of time and a higher peak clad f'

tenperature if the core unewers.

The B&W small brent model does co2 sider heat transfer capabilitie frca the core to the coolant but does not appear to include heatFor b i

l transport capabilities out of the system.

0.05 f?, the heat reoval rate through the break will exceed the decay heat generation rate in the core and, therefore, heat However, if the transport need not be included in the model.sars model 2
