Modeling Feedback Effects of Transient Nuclear Systems Using Monte Carlo
Monte Carlo neutron transport is the gold standard for accurate neutronics simulation of nuclear reactors in steady-state because each term of the neutron transport equation can be directly tallied using continuous-energy cross sections rather than needing to make approximations in energy, angle, …

MULTI-PHYSICS DESIGN AND ANALYSES OF LONG LIFE REACTORS FOR LUNAR OUTPOSTS
… which iteratively couples together detailed Monte Carlo neutronics simulations with 3-D Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and thermal-hydraulics analyses. Using this methodology the operational life of this compact, fast spectrum reactor is increased by reconfiguring the core geometry to …

Nuclear reactor multi-physics simulations with coupled MCNP5 and STAR-CCM+
The MCNP5 Monte Carlo particle transport code has been coupled to the computational fluid dynamics code, STAR-CCM+, to provide a high fidelity multi-physics simulation tool for analyzing the steady state properties of a PWR core. The codes are executed separately and coupled externally through a …
