A version of the RELAP/MOD2 code has been developed to allow the direct calculation of hydrodynamic piping load histories. The code allows the calculation of piping forcing functions within the same computer run used to evaluate the transient thermofluid conditions. A description of this code, RELAP5-FORCE MOD2 is provided. The accuracy and validity of RELAP5-FORCE MOD2 are demonstrated by comparisons to benchmark test data.
