Stochastic Method for Delayed Neutron Precursors Transport in Liquid Fuel
Mathis Caprais, Daniele Tomatis
This paper presents a novel stochastic method for modeling the transport of Delayed Neutron Precursors (DNPs) in liquid nuclear fuel. The method incorporates advection and diffusio…

A new calculation method using pathlines for delayed neutron precursors in liquid nuclear fuels
Mathis Caprais, André Bergeron, Nathan Greiner +1
In nuclear reactors, Delayed Neutron Precursors (DNPs) are important for reactor safety and operation. In liquid nuclear fuels, DNPs are transported by the flow, and an advection-r…

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…
