These analyses are performed by coupling a thermohydraulic calculation and an aerosol transport and deposition calculation. When applying the result of such an analysis in a code simulating nuclear reaction, it can be used to evaluate the dose rate in the containment of a nuclear power plant. To prove the feasibility and the practicality of the mentioned procedure, an evaluation chain containing two calculation parts has been established. The first part of the evaluation chain is related to the isotopic source term analyses, which utilizes the codes ATHLET-CD and COCOSYS in a coupled version to obtain source term results on isotope basis. An SB LOCA scenario of a 50 cm2 leak at the hot-leg of the reactor cooling system surge line loop with limited emergency measurement leading to core degradation without reactor pressure vessel failure is assumed. Thermohydraulic responses and fission product transport and distribution in both RCS and containment are analyzed. The second part of the evaluation chain is performed with Monaco. Monaco is a time-independent, fixed-source, multi-group Monte Carlo particle transport code for shielding application. For the radiological assessment, two source locations are chosen to perform particle transport analyses in three different containment geometry models. The three containment geometry models are built based on one another. The first model represents a strongly simplified containment and reactor building and the last model has the highest geometrical resolution. The quality of the applied evaluation chain is impressive. This is proven by comparing the results of exemplary calculations with the measurements in the containment of the Three-Mile-Island Unit 2. They are in very good agreement.}, cin = {419810 / 413110}, ddc = {620}, cid = {$I:(DE-82)419810_20140620$ / $I:(DE-82)413110_20140620$}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)11}, doi = {10.18154/RWTH-2020-02522}, url = {https://publications.rwth-aachen.de/record/783468}, }
