ABSTRACT
This report contains a bibliographic review and a critical analysis of
different methodologies used for uncertainty evaluation in research reactors
core safety related parameters. Different parameters where uncertainties are
considered are also presented and discussed, as well as their intrinsic nature
regarding the way their uncertainty combination must be done. Finally a
combined statistical method with direct propagation of uncertainties and a set
of basic parameters as wall and ONB temperatures, CHF, PRD and their respective
ratios where uncertainties should be considered is proposed.
