Heat transfer

  1. Full-resolution model reproduces key MSRE flow and neutron data
    Full-resolution multiphysics simulation of the Molten Salt Reactor Experiment couples neutronics with thermal-hydraulics to reproduce experimental behavior and reveal three-dimensional flow.
  2. Analytical model estimates MHD pressure losses in lead-lithium flow
    Analytical model and CFD validation for MHD pressure drop in lead-lithium flows for fusion reactor breeding blankets under variable magnetic field conditions.
  3. A CFD S S T k − ω − k θ − ε θ four parameter heat transfer turbulence model for the 19-pin fuel assembly in LBE cooled reactors
    Four-parameter turbulence model for predicting heat transfer in lead-bismuth cooled fast reactors, addressing nonlinear Prandtl number behavior in liquid metal coolants.
