A core damage accident was defined in RASCAL s STD Module and the resultant dose projection for the intermediate phase relocation was reviewed The farthest centerline distance that any relocation PAG was exceeded was the 2 year PAG at 7 miles This relocation boundary location was then chosen as the point for comparing the two models See images below for data details At this STD Day 0 7 mile centerline geographic point 1 the 2 year rem dose was observed and recorded 2 the closed window exposure rate in mR hr was observed and recorded and 3 the deposition concentrations in uCi m of all the contributing nuclides was observed and recorded These contributing nuclides and their deposition concentrations were then used as pseudo field data inputs into the RASCAL FMD Module The FMD Module calculations using this data then produced its version of the relocation parameters 1 2 year rem dose and 2 274 year relocation closed window exposure rate in mR hr Again see images below for output results details A 3 Summary of findings The Day 0 7 mile 274 year relocation dose is the same 0 511 rem value in both the STD and FMD models The closed window relocation exposure rate value in mR hr is nearly identical for the two models at 2 87 mR hr STD and 2 82 mR hr FMD when inputting all contributing nuclides as field data If the number of deposited nuclides fed as input into the FMD model is limited to the primary 15 nuc

D WORKING WITH SPECIAL RECEPTORS The SR feature in RASCAL allows a user to pre define custom geographic locations of special interest such as pre established sampling sites critical facility sites farms schools day cares etc Once defined and placed into one or more special csv text tables stored in RASCAL they can be readily loaded in support of emergency response actions or drills and exercises SR feature forces the modeling software to give data values at these high interest locations and its associated export option makes the data available for creating custom maps highlighting these sites 3 1 THE SPECIAL RECEPTORS DEFAULT DISPLAY SCREEN The SR display consists of four data fields as seen below A row represents a single site location and there are up to 100 sites rows available within each table created An unlimited number of tables can be stored in the appropriate RASCAL program folder but only one table can be used at any given time while running a projection The image below is of the default SR screen with no pre defined site data loaded E53 Special Receptors Es 2 2 Receptor 03 0 imi Receptor 04 mi Receptor 05 0 0 Receptor 06 0 mi Receptor 07 0 0 Receptor 08 10 10 mi Receptor 09 mi Receptor 10 mi R
