14. ViSA offers new options for RELAP input and GUIs
Visual Systems Analysis (ViSA) a user-friendly computing environment for RELAP systems codes developed by KAERI:
User-friendly input maintenance
Users can interactively review and modify geometric inputs in dialog box
Control input editor enables easy and interactive review and modification of complicated control system inputs
Clear understanding of the calculation results.
Users designs plant mimic by drag-and-drop from provided indicators
Nodalization window allows to examine the transient temperature, void and boron distributions
Trend graphs for specific parameters are displayed at user’s requests
Interactive control capability enables users to simulate operator actions.

15. AASATs and PST provide simulation GUI for multiple desktop student and instructor training environment

16. Interactive graphics displays are built and designed for individual plant

17. Predefined colored displays can be accessed by user

18. Simulation can be controlled using switches on control panel using touch screen monitors
