Development and application of an innovative tool to automate the process of results extraction from the thermo-hydraulic simulator Olga

Abstract

This paper presents the development and application of an innovative code to extract in an automated way data from the thermo-hydraulic simulator Olga. The results show that the tool can significantly reduce the time needed for the data extraction procedure and increase the reliability of results due to the fact that there is no more the need of the human operator. Moreover, during the data extraction phase, the Olga code is available for running different simulations allowing to optimize the use of this resource.
