The rod ejection (RE) is a design basis accident in accordance with NUREG-0800 and usually studied using point kinetics. In this paper a methodology and a 3D kinetic model is prepared (PARCS), coupled with a thermal hydraulic system code (TRACE) for simulating this accident scenario for general VVER 1000 technology.
