Pressurised Water Reactor (PWR)

A generic PWR is used in Scenarios 2-5, 7, and 9 of Report 4. No specific licensed design is modelled. The PWR provides the operational context for most of the report series' worked examples, including the running RCS temperature anomaly scenario that threads through Report 6's capability-gradient.
