IFDF acceleration method with adaptive diffusion coefficients for SN nodal calculation in SARAX code system

Annals of Nuclear Energy, 2020
Abstract SN nodal method has been successfully applied to fast reactor core neutronics analysis. The computational efficiency can be enhanced efficiently by the popular coarse-mesh finite difference (CMFD) method. However, the CMFD method suffers from the problem of instability, especially for optically thick problems.

NEMSQR: A 3-D multi group diffusion theory code based on nodal expansion method for square geometry

Annals of Nuclear Energy, 2014
Abstract A three dimensional, multigroup, neutron diffusion theory based computer code NEMSQR ( N odal E xpansion M ethod for SQ uare geometry) is developed for square geometry in order to perform reactor core calculation. The code is based on Nodal Expansion Method (NEM).

Development of a new analytic function expansion nodal code, HexDANM, for solving the neutron diffusion equation in hexagonal-Z geometry

Kerntechnik, 2015
Abstract In this paper, we developed a new approach of analytic function expansion nodal (AFEN) method to solve the multi-group and multi-dimensional neutron diffusion equation in reactor cores with hexagonal fuel assembly. This method represents a multidimensional intra nodal flux distribution in terms of analytic basis functions at any

C-PORCA 7: a nodal diffusion reactor calculation code to support off-line and on-line core analysis at Paks nuclear power plant

Kerntechnik, 2019
Abstract The C-PORCA/HELIOS models have been used at NPP Paks as basic core neutron physics calculation tools for many years. C-PORCA is a node-wise diffusion model for the purpose of 3D core analysis. HELIOS is a well-known neutron transport code. Its utilisation at Paks NPP has a dual use.

Low power transient analysis of PWR reload core with fixed neutron source via 3-D nodal diffusion code RAST-K

Annals of Nuclear Energy, 2021
Abstract The rod ejection accident (REA) is the most severe reactivity-initiated accident of the pressurized water reactors (PWRs). The three-dimensional (3-D) neutron kinetics method is widely applied to the REA analysis, where the fixed neutron source is usually ignored at the hot zero power (HZP) condition. This paper describes a new capability of

Recalculating the steady state conditions of the V-1000 zero-power facility at Kurchatov Institute using Monte Carlo and nodal diffusion codes

Kerntechnik, 2017
Abstract Continuous-energy Monte Carlo reactor physics code Serpent 2 was used to model the critical steady state conditions measured in V-1000 zero-power critical facility at Kurchatov Institute (KI), Moscow in 1990–1992. The Serpent 2 results were compared to measurements and Serpent 2 was used to generate group constants for reactor ...
