Finally, CTF provides coolant temperature and coolant pressure to FRAPCON as the boundary condition for fuel performance prediction. No data is sent from ...

A Monte-Carlo neutronics/thermal-hydraulics/fuel-performance (N/TH/FP) multi-physics coupling system has been developed based on the MCS code recently.

The full N/TH/FP coupling overcomes the drawbacks of the previous N/TH (MCS/CTF) and N/FP (MCS/FRAPCON) coupling systems, which suffered respectively from the ...

The neutronics/thermal-hydraulics/fuel-performance coupling of the BEAVRS benchmark was also accomplished by the Monte Carlo code MCS, CTF and FRAPCON (Yu et al ...

A Monte-Carlo neutronics/thermal-hydraulics/fuel-performance (N/TH/FP) multi-physics coupling system has been developed based on the MCS code recently for ...

MCS code is being developed for the purpose of nuclear reactors design especially for PWRs with very good performance in efficiency and accuracy, which applies ...

MCS based neutronics/thermal-hydraulics/fuel-performance coupling with CTF and FRAPCON. J Yu, H Lee, M Lemaire, H Kim, P Zhang, D Lee. Computer Physics ...

Therefore, the FRAPCON has been chosen in this paper to be coupled with the MCS code to increase the accuracy of fuel temperature calculations and the ...

Neutronics/thermal-hydraulics/fuel-performance coupling for light water reactors and its application to accident tolerant fuel.

This thesis describes the 3D whole-core analysis with pin-wise resolution in which neutron transport, depletion, thermal-hydraulic, and fuel behavior ...
