Explicit decay heat calculation in the nodal diffusion code DYN3D [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Nuclear Energy, 2018
The residual radioactive decay heat plays an important role in some accident scenarios and, therefore, needs to be accurately calculated when performing accident analyses. The current reactor simulation codes used for accident analysis account for the residual decay heat by means of simplified models.

Three-dimensional multigroup diffusion code ANDEX based on nodal method for cartesian geometry. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nuclear Science and Technology, 1990
An analytic polynomial nodal method using partial currents has been derived for the solution of multigroup neutron diffusion equations in three-dimensional (3-D) cartesian geometry. This method is characterized by expressing the source and leakage terms in an auxiliary 1-D diffusion equation by quadratic polynomials and solving it analytically.
