IMPLEMENTATION OF TURBULENCE MODELING FOR THE COUPLED GRIFFIN-PRONGHORN SIMULATION OF THE MOLTEN SALT FAST REACTOR FOR THE VIRTUAL TEST BED

Conference ·
OSTI ID:2323886
In support of the Virtual Test Bed (VTB) repository, the Molten Salt Fast Reactor (MSFR) concept is modeled using MOOSE-based tools, notably Griffin and Pronghorn, employing newly implemented initial turbulence models and standard wall functions. The models are adapted to Pronghorn’s spirit of a multidimensional coarse-mesh intermediate fidelity code. Multiphysics simulations of a 2D axisymmetric model of an MSFR are carried out to study the coupling between the different physics.
