The primary goals of the engineering design for nuclear reactors involve safeguarding the integrity of the reactor core. Preserving the integrity of the cladding material is especially crucial, as it serves as the initial defense against the potential dangers posed by radioactive materials. In this work, an accident analysis of core cooling pump power transients of different ratios of the nominal pump power in a typical material test reactor is conducted. Phase failure is a very common electrical fault experienced by three-phase motors. Pump power reduction can be initiated due to several causes, like phase failure, voltage reduction, winding failure, and other causes. The nuclear reactor analysis code PARET/ANL version 7.6 is used to carry out these calculations.
