Radiation damage and yield strength calculations in the pressure vessel of WWER-1000 reactor and sensitivity analysis of neutron spectrum on the shield of vessel [PDF]
Radiation damage calculation is very important for estimating the lifetime of nuclear power plant instruments. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the sensitivity of the damage values to the neutron group energy, where the neutron flux rate ...

USE OF THE SIMPLIFIED PN EQUATIONS AND TRANSPORT CORRECTIONS IN THE WIMS/PANTHER EMBEDDED SUPERCELL METHOD [PDF]
The WIMS/PANTHER Embedded Supercell Method (ESM) provides a significant improvement in prediction accuracy in radial power distributions for pressurised water reactors compared to the standard “two-step” approach, without the need for a significant ...

FAST REACTOR MULTIPHYSICS AND UNCERTAINTY PROPAGATION WITHIN WIMS [PDF]
For liquid metal-cooled fast reactors (LMFRs), improved predictive modelling is desirable to facilitate reactor licensing and operation and move towards a best estimate plus uncertainty (BEPU) approach.

MAXIMISING DISCHARGE BURNUP IN AN OPEN CYCLE MOLTEN SALT REACTOR [PDF]
This paper discusses work done to find an estimate of the maximum achievable discharge burnup in an open cycle molten salt reactor (MSR). An in-development deterministic code (WIMS11) is used to create a model of a simple generic MSR, and the methodology
