Time‐Series Forecasting of a Typical PWR Undergoing Large Break LOCA

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
In this work, a machine learning (ML) metamodel is developed for the time‐series forecasting of a typical nuclear power plant response undergoing a loss of coolant accident (LOCA). The plant model of choice is based on the APR1400 nuclear reactor. The key systems and components of APR1400 relevant to the investigated scenario are modelled using the ...

Enhancement of Reflood Test Prediction by Integrating Machine Learning and Data Assimilation Technique

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Data assimilation (DA) was revealed as a highly efficient approach to enhance the prediction’s accuracy, demonstrating the reliability of the simulation through uncertainty quantification analysis. However, in the numerical simulations, most of the tasks are highly nonlinear relationships between the parameters that directly affect the efficiency of ...

Worst‐Case Accident Analysis of Accident Tolerant Fuel in NuScale Using RELAP5/MOD3‐Based Code

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Research in nuclear engineering focusses on improving the safety of light water reactors (LWRs), driven by accidents like Fukushima in 2011. The severity of this accident was a result of active cooling system failures and cladding material oxidation resulting in hydrogen explosions.
