Optimised Iteration in Coupled Monte Carlo – Thermal-Hydraulics Calculations

SNA + MC 2013 - Joint International Conference on Supercomputing in Nuclear Applications + Monte Carlo, 2014
This paper describes an optimised iteration scheme for the number of neutron histories and the relaxation factor in successive iterations of coupled Monte Carlo and thermal-hydraulic reactor calculations based on the stochastic iteration method.

Coulped neutronics/thermal-hydraulics calculation of VVER-1000 fuel assembly

Nuclear Science and Technology, 2016
This paper presents a computational scheme using MCNP5 and COBRA-EN for coupling neutronics/thermal hydraulics calculation of a VVER-1000 fuel assembly. A master program was written using the PERL script language to build the corresponding inputs for the MCNP5 and COBRA-EN calculations and to manage the coupling scheme.

Review of European Thermal-Hydraulic Calculational Methods for Thermal Reactors

Nuclear Science and Engineering, 1988
During the past few years, there has been an increasing effort to understand the behavior of nuclear power plants (NPPs) in normal and abnormal situations. To achieve this goal, large computer codes that allow the description of two-phase flows with sources and sinks of mass and heat have been built in many countries.

3D thermal-hydraulic calculations of a modular block-type HTR core

Nuclear Engineering and Design, 2006
Abstract This paper deals with 3D numerical simulation of assemblies of a high temperature helium cooled reactor core. The present aim is to investigate an emergency situation due to the blocking of few Helium channels in the core. In this situation, some Helium channels for coolant passage are blocked and the related issue is the temperature ...

Calculation and analysis of thermal–hydraulics fluctuations in pressurized water reactors

Annals of Nuclear Energy, 2015
Abstract Analysis of thermal–hydraulics fluctuations in pressurized water reactors (e.g., local and global temperature or density fluctuations, as well as primary and charging pumps fluctuations) has various applications in calculation or measurement of the core dynamical parameters (temperature or density reactivity coefficients) in addition to ...

Liquid-Metal-Cooled Reactor Thermal-Hydraulic Calculations in the United States

Nuclear Science and Engineering, 1988
A wide range of thermal-hydraulic computer codes has been developed by various organizations in the United States. These codes cover an extensive range of purposes from within-assembly-wise pin temperature calculations to plantwide transient analysis. The codes are used for static analysis, analysis of protected anticipated transients, and analysis of ...
