The University of Michigan proposes to investigate specific thermal-hydraulic issues, which will ensure that the Reactor Cavity Cooling System (RCCS), a key safety system for the Next Generation Nuclear Plant, is able to successfully accomplish its safety functions under all conditions, and will result in improved computational methodologies for the prediction of the RCCS behavior.
