ious effects associated with the postulated rupture in the primary or secondary coolant system piping. The subsequent thermodynamic effects in the containment resulting from the release of the coolant mass and energy are determined from a solution of the incremental space and time-dependent energy, mass, and momentum Rev. 2 - July 1981 USNRC STANDARD REVIEW PLAN Standard review plans ar prepared for the guidance of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation etaff responsible for the review of applicaons to construct and operate nuclear power plants. Thes docu'ments are made available to the pubic as part of the Comrion's , poiy to Inform the nuclear industry and the general public of regulatory procedures and policies. Standard review pans ar not sub for regulatory guides or the Commissin' regulations and compliance with them Is not required. The standard review plan sections are keyed to the Standard Format and Content of Safety Analysis Reports for Nucler Power Plants.

The basic functional design requirements for containment are given in General Design Criteria 16 and 50 in Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50. General Design Criterion 50, among other things, requires that consideration be given to the potential consequences of degraded engineered safety features, such as the containment heat removal system and the emergency core cooling system, the limitations in defining accident phenomena, and the conservatism of calculational models and input parameters, in assessing containment design margins. General Design Criteria 52 and 53 provide design requirements to assure that the
