Pyrochemical Processes for Lwr Spent Fuel
Pyrochemical processes are under development at Argonne National Laboratory for recovery of transuranium (TRU) elements from light water reactor spent fuel. The recovered TRU elements will be used as fuel in the integral fast reactor (IFR). Burning these long-lived isotopes for electrical power generation has the additional benefit of reducing the burden on the geological repository for their l...
متن کاملComparative analysis of neutronics/thermal-hydraulics multi-scale coupling for LWR analysis
The aim of the research described in this paper is to perform consistent comparative analyses of two different approaches for coupling of two-scale, two-physics phenomena in reactor core calculations. The physical phenomena of interest are the neutronics and the thermal-hydraulics core behaviors and their interactions, while the spatial scales are the “global” (assembly/channel-wise) and the “l...
متن کاملCoupling Requirements for Multiphysics Problems Posed on Two Domains
We consider two hyperbolic systems in first order form of different size posed on two 4 domains. Our ambition is to derive general conditions for when the two systems can and cannot be 5 coupled. 6 The adjoint equations are derived and well-posedness of the primal and dual problems are dis7 cussed. By applying the energy method, interface conditions for the primal and dual problems are 8 derive...
