Under the guidance of the Nuclear Science Committee (NSC), the Working Party on Scientific Issues and Uncertainty Analysis of Reactor Systems (WPRS) studies the reactor physics, fuel performance, an...
The international benchmark concerned pebble bed modular reactor (PBMR) coupled neutronics/thermal-hydraulics transients based on the PBMR-400MW design.
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 ...
The overall objective of the VVER-1000 Coolant Transient (V1000CT) Benchmark was to assess computer codes used in the safety analysis of water-water energetic reactor (VVER) power plants, specificall...
Multi-physics Pellet Cladding Mechanical Interaction Validation (MPCMIV) Benchmark
High-temperature gas-cooled reactors (HTGRs), also known as very-high-temperature reactors (VHTR) are Generation IV reactors that can operate at very high temperatures and use a graphite-moderated ga...
