“…As such, RELAP/SCDAPSIM was designed to minimize the influence of user effects by using detailed best estimate models, minimizing the ability of users to modify critical modeling parameters. In addition, as noted in Section 4, since the initial development and release of the code in the late 1990s, RELAP/SCDAPSIM has been used to (a) support the design and analysis of integral thermal hydraulic experiments performed in the French PHEBUS and German QUENCH facilities [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25], (b) analyze a wide range of reactor designs including passive cooled designs like the AP1000 and smaller research reactors [26][27][28],…”
