In this study, mass transfer in the nuclear reactor cooling channels are simulated by the subchannel analysis code COBRA-PC4. In order to perform this simulation, the COBRA-IV-I code should be adapted into available computer media. Original COBRA-IV-I code is obtained from OECD NEA Databank in the format compatible for IBM mainframe computers. Then the adaptation work is performed to obtain an IBM PC compatible COBRA-PC4 code. After obtaining PC compatible code, simulation step is started for subchannels. Three kinds of experimental setup are simulated with fourteen different cases, and the results compared with the experimental data. As the final stage of this work, predictive experimental cases are simulated in order to give the predictive data to the future experimental studies.
