Implementation of engineering codes for WWER-440 core calculations
Abstract
The paper gives brief information about the status of the ANDREA code implementation at the Nuclear Regulatory Authority of Slovak republic and Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava. The first results of real fuel loading are compared to KASKAD results and a brief discussion on achieved progress and further plans is provided.
