Modeling the performance of high burnup thoria and urania PWR fuel
… were modeled by modifying the NRC licensing codes FRAPCON-3 for normal operation and FRAP-T6 for transient conditions. These models were verified and compared to the results of previous thorium fuel studies and high burnup uranium fuel evaluations. The buildup of plutonium in the outer rim of …

Precision Background Stability and Response Calibration in Borexino: Prospects for Wideband, Precision Solar Neutrino Spectroscopy and BSM Neutrino Oscillometry Through a Deeper Detector Understanding
… extensive simulative work with the MCNP-5 neutronics code. With the switch of pace toward a ¹⁴Ce-¹⁴⁴Pr electron-antineutrino source, this work was re-oriented toward the efforts to re-calibrate the detector after the 2009-10 campaign, improving and expanding upon it by the introduction of …

Coupling of system thermal-hydraulics and Monte-Carlo method for a consistent thermal-hydraulics-reactor physics feedback
… continuous-energy Monte Carlo reactor physics code, Serpent, with thermal-hydraulics safety analysis code RELAP5-3D. Thermal-hydraulics and reactor physics coupling is commonly used in deterministic methods, for example RELAP5/PARCS and TRACE/PARCS. It has been well-validated for a number of …
