Uncertainty quantification for a severe accident sequence in a SFP in the frame of the H-2020 project MUSA: First outcomes

The Management and Uncertainties of Severe Accidents (MUSA) project, funded in HORIZON 2020 and coordinated by CIEMAT (Spain), aims at consolidating a harmonized approach for the analysis of uncertainties and sensitivities associated with Severe Accidents (SAs) focusing on Source Term (ST). In this framework, the objectives of the Innovative Management of Spent Fuel Pool Accidents (IMSFP – WP6), led by IRSN (France), are to quantify and rank the uncertainties affecting accident analyses in a Spent Fuel Pool (SFP), to review existing and contemplated SA management measures and systems and to assess their possible benefits in terms of reduction of radiological consequences.
