A quantitative assessment is made of the possibilities of the SOKRAT code to model the dissolution of uranium dioxide fuel by zirconium cladding melt at the initial stage of a serious accident at NPP with VVER. The methodological approach for the assessment is based on the ASME V&V 20 standard and includes an uncertainty analysis. The results of local high-temperature experiments studying the kinetics of the process are used as a technical base.
