Abstract
The nuclear steam supply system of 300 MWe power plant is simulated in this paper. One fuel assembly is treated as one channel and there are 121 channels in the whole reactor core. And every channel is divided into 12 nodes axially, while the whole NSSS is divided into 1,509 nodes. The simulation of NSSS with 3D reactor core is achieved in high speed calculation method, and the results are acceptable.
