Prediction of the evolution of the nuclear reactor core parameters using artificial neural network [PDF]
Annals of Nuclear Energy, 2023 A nuclear reactor based on MIT BEAVRS benchmark was used as a typical power generating Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR). The PARCS v3.2 nodal-diffusion core simulator was used as a full-core reactor physics solver to emulate the operation of a reactor and

A Precision Benchmark Suite for Nuclear Reactor Point Kinetics Equations via Converged Accelerated Taylor Series (CATS) [PDF]
Nuclear science and engineeringExtreme benchmarks of 10 or more places for the point kinetics equations for time-dependent nuclear reactor power transients are rare. Therefore, to establish an extreme benchmark, we employ a Taylor series (TS) with continuous analytical continuation to

Strain Localisation and Fracture of Nuclear Reactor Core Materials
Journal of Nuclear Engineering, 2023 The production of prismatic dislocation loops in nuclear reactor core materials results in hardening because the loops impede dislocation motion. Yielding often occurs by a localised clearing of the loops through interactions with gliding dislocations ...

A system of automated power control during disturbances that occur inside a PWR nuclear reactor
International Science Journal of Engineering & Agriculture, 2023 In order to increase the service life of NPPs is proposed to change the power of the nuclear reactor depending on the needs of consumers. However, power maneuvering increases the risk of an emergency situation, since it is very difficult to maintain a ...
