This benchmark is based on a well-defined problem concerning a pressurised water reactor (PWR) main steam line break, which may occur as a consequence of the rupture of one steam line upstream of the...

The benchmark is based on a well-defined problem concerning a PWR main steam line break, which may occur as a consequence of the rupture of one steam line upstream of the main steam isolation valves....
