The thermal-hydraulic behavior of the Kori 3, 4 nuclear power plants in the event of the total loss of feed water accident during full power operation is analyzed numerically. The accident is simulated using the commercial thermal-hydraulic analysis codes MARS3.1. The important thermal-hydraulic variables, the quantitative occurring time of the related thermal-hydraulic parameters, and core damage time are provided. The results of this study can improve the safety of the nuclear power plants, and can provide information to quantify event sequence in the development of probabilistic safety assessment methodology and integrated accident management technology.
