Neutronics Modeling and Simulation of Sharp for Fast Reactor Analysis
Reactor design is an iterative process among various disciplines such as reactor physics, thermal fluid dynamics, mechanics, reactor and plant dynamics, fuel behavior, and instrumentation and control, and requires a wide range of modeling and simulation tools that can accurately predict key system performance and safety characteristics. Most code systems for fast reactor design were initiated m...
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 کاملNuclear fuel in a reactor accident.
Nuclear accidents that lead to melting of a reactor core create heterogeneous materials containing hundreds of radionuclides, many with short half-lives. The long-lived fission products and transuranium elements within damaged fuel remain a concern for millennia. Currently, accurate fundamental models for the prediction of release rates of radionuclides from fuel, especially in contact with wat...
متن کاملKINETIC STUDY OF TRR CORE IN FUEL CONVERSION FROM HEU TO LEU
In the conversion of fuel in the Tehran Research Reactor core from Highly- Enriched Uraniutn to Low-Enriched Uranium fuel neutronics analysis, thermal hydraulic calculations and kinetic performance of the core have to be studied. In this study, static and dynamic core performance for HEU and LEU fuels were investigated. In static conditions, two groups of neutron flux distributions in axia...
متن کاملThermal Hydraulic Limits Analysis for the MIT Research Reactor Low Enrichment Uranium Core Conversion Using Statistical Propagation of Parametric Uncertainties
The MIT Research Reactor (MITR) is evaluating the conversion from highly enriched uranium (HEU) to low enrichment uranium (LEU) fuel. In addition to the fuel element redesign from 15 to 18 plates per element, a reactor power upgraded from 6 MW to 7 MW is proposed in order to maintain the same reactor performance of the HEU core. Previous approaches in analyzing the impact of engineering uncerta...
