This report provides the results of the fluid structure interaction (FSI) benchmark, which was developed and performed by the designer and engineering company OKBM as part of NEA and ROSATOM activiti...

This Technical Opinion Paper (TOP) studies the emerging use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) as an additional tool for the evaluation of safety cases implying thermal hydraulics. CFD allows a fi...

The eighth instalment of the workshop on computational fluid dynamics for nuclear reactor safety (CFD4NRS-8) was organised by the Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) Committee on the Safety of Nuclear Instal...

When looking for a validation experiment for CFD application to reactor simulation for either design or safety studies, it appears that available data often suffer from a lack of local measurements, ...

The Workshop on Experimental Validation and Application of CFD and CMFD Codes to Nuclear Reactor Safety Issues, CFD4NRS-7 was the seventh in a series of workshops focusing on Computational Fluid Dyna...

Single-phase computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used more and more for design and safety issues related to light-water reactor (LWR) thermal hydraulics. Over the past ten years, the Working Group ...

In May 2002, an exploratory meeting of experts to define an action plan on the application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Codes to nuclear reactor safety problems was held in Aix-en-Provence, ...

Following recommendations made at an exploratory meeting of experts to define an action plan on the application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) codes to nuclear reactor safety (NRS) problems, h...
