ART/NEAMS M&S Molten Salt Reactors @PHYSOR24 April 21, 2024

Course Description

The goal of the training session is to demonstrate the application of MOOSE-based tools for coupled neutronics – thermal-hydraulics modeling of liquid fuel molten salt reactors (MSRs). The training session will be focused on developing a multiphysics model for a simplified model of the Molten Salt Reactor Experiment (MSRE) by coupling neutronics based on the Griffin neutronics code, and thermal hydraulics based on Pronghorn/SAM codes. Steady-state and a flow driven transient will be modeled with demonstration of the delayed neutron precursor impacts.
