Classical novae eject significant amounts of matter into the interstellar medium, as a result of thermonuclear runaways. Nucleosynthesis associated with nova outbursts includes products from explosive H burning, such as 17O, 15N and 13C, and also radioactive species like 7Be, 22Na and 26Al. In this paper we report on new hydrodynamic calculations of nova outbursts, from the onset of accretion to mass ejection. We stress the role played by the nuclear uncertainties associated with key reactions of the NeNa-MgAl cycles on the synthesis of 22Na and 26Al.
