[2P04] A simple assessment scheme for severe accident consequences using source term parameters

*Silva Kampanart1, Koji Okamoto2 (1.Thailand Institute of Nuclear Technology, 2.University of Tokyo)

Keywords:Severe accident, Accident consequence, Consequence assessment, Source term

Correlation between the Nuclear Accident Consequence Index (NACI) and the amount of released cesium-137 is investigated in order to use the amount of released cesium-137 for the assessment of severe accident consequences. The correlation follows power function, and the exponent of the function can be used to explain the correlation.
