The annual Benchmark Workshops of the Working Party on Scientific Issues and Uncertainty Analysis of Reactor Systems will be hosted by the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sus...
The 9th edition of the Computational Fluid Dynamics for Nuclear Reactor Safety workshop was hosted by Texas A&M University on 20-22 February 2023.
The WPRS met from 20-24 February 2023.
The Working Party on Scientific Issues and Uncertainty Analysis of Reactor Systems (WPRS) studies the reactor physics, fuel performance, and radiation transport and shielding in present and future nu...
The modelling and simulation of nuclear systems allow scientists and engineers to probe aspects of the operation of these systems beyond what has been precisely measured. This has numerous applicatio...
An approach similar to the OECD/NRC Boiling Water Reactor Full-size Fine-mesh Bundle Tests (BFBT) Benchmark was adopted by dividing the benchmark activity into phases.
A number of tests with detail well documented neutronics and thermal-hydraulics measurements data have been performed at the Rostov Unit 2 (Rostov-2) nuclear power plant (NPP). The reactor type is a ...
WPRS gathered 172 experts from 22 countries at the annual Benchmark Workshop.
The expert group dealt with the activities associated with the certification of experimental data and benchmark models along with establishing the processes and procedures for using the data and benc...
The purpose of this prismatic High Temperature Reactor (HTR) benchmark is to provide a solution set that can be used in future code benchmarking and to better understand the effects induced by the pr...
