217 BWR See: Boiling water reactor By-pass Route that allows fission products released from a reactor core to enter the environment without passing through the containment or accident localization volume. Catastrophic failure Failure of the reactor containment in a manner that releases most of the fission products in the containment into the environment in a short time. Centerline (plume) An imaginary line drawn in the middle of the plume along its downwind travel direction with a straight-line Gaussian approximation model. The plume concentrations and deposition are assumed to be the highest along the centerline. CET See: Core exit thermocouple Charging Pump A pump used during normal operation to maintain primary system water level. Also referred to as a make-up pump or normal injection pump. This pump may also used as part of the ECCS system. Child A 10 year old. Chronic dose Radiation dose received over
