Development of a multiphysics model for the study of fuel compressibility effects in the Molten Salt Fast Reactor

TL;DR: In this article, a multiphysics model is developed for the analysis of the generation IV Molten Salt Fast Reactor (MSFR), with a specific focus on the compressibility effects of the fluid that acts as fuel in the reactor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Results from a multi-physics numerical benchmark for codes dedicated to molten salt fast reactors

TL;DR: This work proposes the use of a coupled numerical benchmark specifically designed to assess the physics-coupling capabilities of the aforementioned codes, and collects and compares the results obtained during the benchmarking campaign of four multi-physics tools developed within the SAMOFAR project.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of an SP3 neutron transport solver for the analysis of the Molten Salt Fast Reactor

TL;DR: In this paper, a multiphysics OpenFOAM solver for the analysis of the MSFR helium bubbling system and its effect on reactivity is presented, where the presence of bubbles inside the reactor is handled with a two-fluid thermal-hydraulics module, previously implemented into the solver.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiphysics analysis of the MSFR helium bubbling system: A comparison between neutron diffusion, SP3 neutron transport and Monte Carlo approaches

TL;DR: In this article, the presence of helium bubbles in the core of the Molten Salt Fast Reactor (MSF Reactor) is investigated from both a neutronics and thermal-hydraulics point of view.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic mode decomposition for the stability analysis of the Molten Salt Fast Reactor core

TL;DR: The results show the capabilities of DMD to extract and surrogate the dynamics of the MSFR following perturbation, including the initial non-linear dynamics and the final steady-state.
