In an operating nuclear reactor system, various physical phenomena of different properties
are intimately linked. These multiphysics phenomena include neutronics (N), thermal …

The advanced heat pipe cooled reactor is a potential candidate to generate nuclear power
for space exploration, and exhibits strong neutron leakage and complicated multi-physics …

The main purpose of this paper is neutronic-thermal hydraulics coupling analysis of the fuel
channel of an advanced Small Modular Reactor (SMR), which is nominated as a near term …

Large-scale reactor calculations with Monte Carlo (MC), including nonlinear feedback
effects, have become a reality in the course of the last decade. In particular, implementations …

A new computational model of the JSI TRIGA Mark II, coupling Monte Carlo neutron
transport code TRIPOLI and fluid dynamics code CFX was built and verified with a set of new …

A novel and modern framework for energy modeling is developed in this paper with a focus
on nuclear energy modeling and simulation. The framework combines multiphysics …

At UPM, in-depth modifications of the core simulator COBAYA, able to perform neutronics
diffusion calculations at both nodal and pin-by-pin levels, have been accomplished during …

The state of an operating nuclear reactor depends on several physical phenomena that
coexist and are interdependent: they can be taken into account simultaneously by adopting …

With the development of the computational capability, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
is more and more widely used as the best estimate approach for the design and safety …

The goal of this study is to improve a micro reactor core into uniform power distribution, a
smaller and safer core. Neutronic thermal-hydraulics coupling is an effective means to study …
