Models, and how each one was made
Some of these were generated from published design detail by software. Some were built by hand and checked against a reference solution. Some are not in the new stack yet. Every card says which, because the difference is the whole point.
Released in its own repository as a generic model of a reactor class. Check the repository for scope and verification status before relying on it.
Built by the model generator from published design detail. Good for exercising the platform, teaching, and benchmarking. Not reviewed against a reference solution and not a plant model.
Built by hand, quantified, and checked against its own reference solution — normally SAPHIRE. Where results disagree, the disagreement is recorded with the model.
Exists as a SAPHIRE model. Translation into the OpenPRA MEF through the SAPHIRE round trip is planned but has not been done.

Internal events, through event sequence quantification
Repository →MHTGR
Modular High Temperature Gas Reactor
Built from published MHTGR design detail by the model generator. Useful for exercising the platform and for teaching. It has not been reviewed against a reference solution.

Experimental Breeder Reactor II
Built from published EBR-II design detail by the model generator. Same caveat: unreviewed, and not a substitute for a plant model.

Ground-up MHTGR model
Constructed by hand in SAPHIRE and checked against its own quantification. Not yet migrated into the new stack.

Severe Accident Risks study models
Held as SAPHIRE models. Migration into the OpenPRA MEF is planned but not done.
Internal events through radiological release

State-of-the-Art Reactor Consequence Analyses
Held as SAPHIRE models. Migration into the OpenPRA MEF is planned but not done.
Sequences through offsite radiological consequence
Repository →Level 3 PRA Project
Offsite radiological consequence reference model
Held as a SAPHIRE model pending radiological consequence support in the new stack.
Offsite radiological consequence
Repository →Why label them at all
A model that looks complete and has never been checked is more dangerous than no model, because it invites use it cannot support. Generated models are genuinely useful — they let someone learn the tool on a realistic structure in an afternoon — but only if nobody mistakes them for an assessment.
Bringing your own
pracciolini translates between the OpenPRA MEF, OpenPSA
MEF XML, and SAPHIRE through a PRAXIS round trip. If a model
survives the round trip unchanged, it will open here.
