OF REACTOR THERMAL-HYDRAULICS CODES.

OF REACTOR THERMAL-HYDRAULICS CODES. THESE CODES HAVE INTERNATIONAL APPLICABILITY. TRADING THESE CODES, WITH APPROPRIATE SUPPORT, TO OTHER COUNTRIES IN EXCHANGE FOR USEFUL DATA OR OTHER RESOURCES WOULD ENHANCE THEIR UTILITY AND REDUCE THE COST TO THE U.S. OF GENERATING EQUIVALENT DATA. THE OBJECTIVE OF THE PROPOSED EFFORT IS TO PROVIDE A SOUND TECHNICAL BASIS FOR SUCH AN EXCHANGE BY: IDENTIFYING COUNTRIES AND ITEMS OF INTEREST FOR EXCHANGE, DEVELOPING METHODS TO ASSESS THE VALUE OF U.S. AND FOREIGN ITEMS, DEVELOPING TECHNICAL STANDARDS FOR ACCEPTABILITY OF FOREIGN DATA, EXPERIMENTS, ETC., RECOMMENDING ACTIONS FOR THE CODE DEVELOPMENT AND ASSESSMENT PROGRAM TO ENHANCE THE VALUE OF THOSE CODES FOR EXCHANGE PURPOSES
