NOZ-FLAW: A Finite Element Program for Direct Evaluation of Stress Intensity Factors for Pressure Vessel Nozzle-Corner Flaws

Description: From Abstract. "This report describes a linear elastic finite element computer program (NOZ-FLAW) which is used for the direct evaluation of mixed-mode stress intensity factors (K1, KII K111) along user-defined crack flaws at pressure-vessel nozzle corners." From Forward: "The work reported here was performed at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory and at the Georgia Institute of Technology under UCC-ND Subcontract No. 7565."

FRAPCON-2 : A Computer Code for the Calculation of Steady State Thermal-Mechanical Behavior of Oxide Fuel Rods

Description: FRAPCON-2 is a FORTRAN IV computer code that calculates the steady state response of light Mater reactor fuel rods during long-term burnup. The code calculates the temperature, pressure, deformation, and tai lure histories of a fuel rod as functions of time-dependent fuel rod power and coolant boundary conditions. The phenomena modeled by the code include (a) heat conduction through the fuel and cladding, (b) cladding elastic and plastic deformation, (c) fuel-cladding mechanical interaction, (d… more
