3-D Radiation Transport benchmarks dealt with scientific issues in the field of deterministic and stochastic methods and computer codes relative to three dimensional (3-D) radiation transport.
A sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR) is a fast neutron reactor that uses molten sodium metal as a coolant. Sodium-cooled Fast Reactors (SFRs) are the most promising type of reactors to achieve Generati...
For nuclear utility companies that opt to reprocess spent fuel, recycle it or do both, one of the main pertinent issues is plutonium recycling.
The expert group provided advice to the Working Party on Scientific Issues of Reactor Systems (WPRS) on the scientific development needs (data and methods, validation experiments, scenario studies) o...
The Expert Group on Shielding Aspects of Accelerators, Targets and Irradiation Facilities (SATIF) dealt with the various aspects of the modelling and design of accelerator shield systems and radiatio...
NEA Working Party on Scientific Issues of Reactor Systems (WPRS) workshops, 7-15 December 2020.
PHYSOR attracts international experts from all segments of the nuclear industry and scientific community, including vendors, utilities, laboratories, and universities. The theme for this year’s confe...
The aim of the benchmark is to improve understanding and modelling of pellet-cladding mechanical interaction (PCMI) amongst NEA member organisations. This is achieved by comparing PCMI predictions of...
Collected sources of primary documentation for reactor physics benchmarks.
A number of tests with detail well documented neutronics and thermal-hydraulics measurements data have been performed at the Rostov Unit 2 (Rostov-2) nuclear power plant (NPP). The reactor type is a ...
An approach similar to the OECD/NRC Boiling Water Reactor Full-size Fine-mesh Bundle Tests (BFBT) Benchmark was adopted by dividing the benchmark activity into phases.
