The present paper discusses the development of a computer software or code for best-estimate analysis of Loss-of-Coolant Accident (LOCA) in Pressurized Heavy Water Reactor (PHWR) systems. The formulation is comparable to U.S., Canadian, French LOCA codes, namely, TRAC, RELAPS, ATHENA, CATHARE, etc. However, the present software has been developed on Microcomputers, namely, PC-XT and AT, whereas the other softwares were developed and are being used primarily on Mainframes such as CDC-7600, CYBER-176, CRAY, etc.
