An iterative scheme to include turbulent diffusion in advective-dominated transport of delayed neutron precursors
Mathis Caprais, André Bergeron
In this study, the Method of Characteristics (MOC) for Delayed Neutron Precursors (DNPs) is used to solve the precursors balance equation with turbulent diffusion. The diffusivity…

One-dimensional gas-fueled nuclear reactor with thermal feedback
Mathis Caprais, Kacim François-Elie, Daniele Tomatis
This study explores a simplified one-dimensional subchannel of a graphite-moderated nuclear reactor operating with a gaseous core in steady-state conditions, reproducing a neutroni…
