Partial MSLB accident: effect of not borating Safety Injection supply water only
cf rtvunsym_3a.dat
Differences | base case: boais= 0 | 2000.
The results (chart 01 and following) are almost identical as for the base case.
This is explained by looking at the
b2o curve (
chart 07).
At q2c peak time (75 s), b2o is the same, about 10 ppm, in both cases: the effect of 0 boron in SI supply water is only felt later.
Does it mean, as far as the mslb accident is concerned, at least, that borating water in the main SI reservoir is not essential?
