As computer-assisted modeling and analysis of physical processes have continued to grow and diversify, sensitivity and uncertainty analyses have become indispensable scientific tools. Sensitivity and Uncertainty Analysis. Volume I: Theory focused on the mathematical underpinnings of two important methods for such analyses: the Adjoint Sensitivity Analysis Procedure and the Global Adjoint Sensitivity Analysis Procedure. This volume concentrates on the practical aspects of performing these analyses for large-scale systems. The applications addressed include two-phase flow problems, a radiative convective model for climate simulations, and large-scale models for numerical weather prediction.

CHAPTER II

APPLICATIONS OF THE ADJOINT SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS PROCEDURE (ASAP) TO TWO-PHASE FLOW SYSTEMS

This Chapter presents applications of the adjoint sensitivity analysis procedure (ASAP) to transient one-dimensional two-phase flow problems modeled by well-posed quasi-linear partial differential equations (PDE’s). The material in this chapter is structured in two main sections. Thus, Section II.A presents a self-contained formalism for sensitivity analysis of functional-type responses associated with two-phase flow models that comprise equations describing conservation of mass, momentum, and energy for practical one-dimensional, two-phase flow models. In particular, the characteristics of applying the ASAP to the so-called homogeneous equilibrium model (HEM) are analyzed in detail.

Section II.B presents the main aspects of implementing the ASAP for the RELAP5/MOD3.2 code, which are essent...
