The participants aimed to improve the understanding of important phenomena expected to occur in small break loss of coolant accident transients of HWRs; to evaluate code capabilities to predict these important phenomena, their practicality and efficiency, by simulating integrated experiments; and to suggest necessary code improvements or new experiments to reduce uncertainties. The summary report provides a comparison of the results obtained from six participating countries, utilizing four different computer codes. Lessons learned were summarized, and general conclusions and recommendations were made.
