Content:
A determination of the code uncertainty for a sample plant accident calculation. (Appendix K models do not require a determination of the code uncertainty. E. A theory manual that is a self-contained document and that describes (a) field equations, (b) closure relationships, (c) numerical solution techniques, (d) simplifications and approximations (including limitations) inherent in the chosen field equations and numerical methods, (e) pedigree or origin of closure relationships used in the code, and (f) limits of applicability for all models in the code. F. A user manual that provides (a) detailed instructions about how the computer code is used, (b) a description of how to choose model input parameters and appropriate code options, (c) guidance about code limitations and options that should be avoided for particular accidents, components, or reactor types, and (d) if multiple computer codes are used, documented procedures for ensuring 15.0.2-4 March 2007 complete and accurate transfer of information between different elements of the evaluation model. G. A quality assurance plan that describes the procedures and controls under which the code was developed and assessed, and the corrective action procedures that are followed when an error is discovered. It is not important that the documentation be provided in exactly the format stated above but the information in the review package must be clearly organized in a reasonable manner. Specific Acceptance Criteria Specific SRP acceptance criteria acceptable to meet the relevant requirements of the NRC’s regulations identified above are as follows for the review described in this SRP section. The SRP is not a substitute for the NRC’s regulations, and compliance with it is not required. However, an applicant is required to identify differences between the design features, analytical techniques, and procedural measures proposed for its facility and the SRP acceptance criteria and evaluate how the proposed alternatives
