Multiphysics Analysis of Load Following and Safety Transients for MicroReactors
- Argonne National Lab. (ANL), Argonne, IL (United States)
The tools developed within the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Nuclear Energy’s Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation (NEAMS) program aim at providing high fidelity multiphysics modeling capabilities to support design and licensing of various types of advanced nuclear reactors, including the technologies being developed by U.S. microreactor vendors relying on heat pipe and gas-cooled technologies. In FY-2022, the NEAMS Multiphysics Applications team made significant progress both in demonstrating capabilities applied to microreactor problems, and in supporting NEAMS developers.
