MACCS Offsite Consequence Analysis Code in Action: Enhancing Radiological Safety for Advanced Reactors
Sponsored by the Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research
This exhibit will highlight ongoing efforts to enhance MELCOR Accident Consequence Code System (MACCS) code readiness for advanced and small modular reactors, including prioritized consequence analysis tasks, expert led gap assessments, and collaborative research on atmospheric dispersion in cold environments. Recent accomplishments include confirmatory dose calculations across reactor sizes and a comprehensive review of consequence analyses to inform future emergency planning and safety assessments.
