Created in 2019, under the guidance of the Working Party on Scientific Issues of Reactor Systems (WPRS) the expert group will perform specific tasks associated with core thermal-hydraulics aspects of...
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 benchmark will predict the Critical Heat Flux (CHF).
The NEA workshop gathered experts to discuss the challenges and opportunities related to the demise of zero power reactors.
In the early decades of nuclear reactor development, many countries built and operated zero-power facilities in which many different critical arrangements of materials were studied. These flexible ex...
The annual WPRS Benchmarks Workshops took place on 22-26 May 2023 in Bologna, Italy.
Kick-off workshop of the thermal hydraulic code validation benchmark for high temperature gas-cooled reactors using High Temperature Test Facility (HTTF) data.
The first International School on Simulation of Nuclear Reactor Systems (SINUS) took place on 22-23 May 2023.
Since the early 2000s there is an increasing demand from nuclear research, industry, safety and regulation for best-estimate predictions to be provided with their confidence bounds. Consequently, an ...
