Validation of Pronghorn’s Subchannel code using the EBR-II shutdown heat removal tests

Conference ·
OSTI ID:2476322

A Subchannel application (Pronghorn-SC) is developed in MOOSE, which affords the required flow field resolution, while still preserving an engineering-scale approach. This new solver can be natively coupled to Pronghorn and other MOOSE objects to enable full-core, multi-physics, multi-scale engineering studies. This work utilizes the EBR-II SHRT tests to validate the subchannel capabilities. Multi-scale and multi-physics coupling is used to improve the fidelity of the subchannel code calculations.
