MAAP thermal-hydraulic qualification studies. Final report

The MAAP Thermal-Hydraulic Qualification and Application Project has as its objective to identify those thermal-hydraulic phenomena modeled in MAAP which are important in predicting severe accident sequences and to qualify those models. This report discusses sensitivity studies performed with MAAP to determine the sensitivity of the code to important input and modeling parameters and comparison of MAAP predictions to test data and independent predictions by other computer programs.
