Evaluation method for natural circulation heat removal in sodium-cooled fast reactor consisted of plant dynamics code Super-COPD and subchannel analysis code ASFRE has been validated to demonstrate thermal hydraulics in whole primary circuit and coolant temperature distributions in a subassembly under the transient from the rated operation condition to natural circulation condition by using EBR-II shutdown heat removal test 17 (SHRT-17) data.
