13.4. Input-Output Description

A listing of CLAP-related input variables is given in Table 13.4.1 as an aid in preparing or modifying SAS input decks. Additionally, the input items on this list should be rechecked when problems are encountered in the running of SAS cases with cladding motion. This list contains all input items used directly by the following CLAP subroutines: TSCLD1, TSCLD2, SODFRC and DENSIT and, in addition, input items used to initiate CLAP and to calculate reactivity effects due to cladding motion (in subroutine FEEDBK).

The CLAP output appears with both the main full printout and the boiling printout. A sample output is shown in Figure 13.4.1. The output labels are generally self-explanatory. The Fortran variable and units corresponding to each output item are given in Table 13.4.2.
