PARET seems to have limited application to small research and test reactors, most of which it seems are cooled by natural convection.

PARET-ANL(NESC): Code System to Predict Consequences of Nondestructive Accidents in Research and Test Reactor Cores

The code seems to be available from OECD-NEA
http://www.oecd-nea.org/tools/abstract/detail/psr-0516

If one wishes some guidance, then perhaps one should contact those who use the code at ANL.
