Validation of thermal-hydraulic codes for system design and safety analysis is dependent on applicable and appropriately scaled experimental data. There are several scaling methodologies for justifying the use of data from small-scale facilities for simulation of large-scale reactor systems. These methods continue to be improved and extended to new situations. This panel will discuss the "art of scaling" and progress in development of scaling methods.
