All rights reserved.After the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station, the attention of the scientific community is riveted on how the consequences are being eliminated. Removing corium - a resolidified mixture of nuclear fuel with other structural elements of the reactor - remains the most difficult task, the solution of which can take several decades. It is extremely important to exclude the occurrence of any emergency processes during the removal of corium. The purpose of this work was to solve a coordinated hydrodynamic and neutron-physical problem characterized by a large number of randomly oriented and irregularly located corium particles in water as part of the development of a benchmark for this class of problems. Monte Carlo- based precision codes were used to perform a neutronic analysis. The positions of particles with corium were obtained from the results of numerical simulation. The analysis results obtained using the codes involved showed good consistency for all the states considered. It was shown that modern neutronic codes based on the Monte Carlo method successfully cope with the geometric formation and solution of the problem with a nontrivial distribution of corium particles in water. The results of the study can be used to justify the safety of corium handling procedures, including its extraction from a damaged power unit.
- ПубликацияОткрытый доступNeutronic analysis of VVER-1000 fuel assembly with different types of burnable absorbers using Monte-Carlo code Serpent(2019) Khrais, R. A.; Tikhomirov, G. V.; Saldikov, I. S.; Smirnov, A. D.; Тихомиров, Георгий Валентинович; Смирнов, Антон Дмитриевич© 2019 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. A neutronic study on the fuel assembly of a Russian type nuclear reactor VVER-1000 fuelled with low enriched Uranium (LEU) plus 12 UO 2 +4%Gd 2 O 3 rods was performed. This type of fuel requires validated computational methods and codes able to provide reliable predictions of the neutronics characteristics. Gadolinium self-shielding effect and isotopes accumulation in Rim region make it necessary to study the geometric modelling effect on the code calculations. The modelling of this fuel type was tested using Monte-Carlo and deterministic codes. In this study, Serpent results are verified using two nuclear data libraries ENDFb.6.8 and ENDFb.7. Also, this study investigates the effect UGd rods division into multiple radial layers on the reactivity, isotopic generation and burnup radial distribution. The same procedure is done on another type of neutron absorber Erbium (UEr) and the results are compared with UGd. The sensitivity of the results determines the validity of Monte-Carlo code in such a computational task comparing two types of neutron absorbers in addition to determining the geometric requirements.
- ПубликацияОткрытый доступNeutronic modelling of nanofluids as a primary coolant in VVER-440 reactor using the Serpent 2 Monte Carlo code(2019) Abdullah, H.; Smirnov, A. D.; Tikhomirov, G. V.; Смирнов, Антон Дмитриевич; Тихомиров, Георгий Валентинович© 2019 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. The nanofluids as an engineered fluid offer a large enhancement in heat transfer, in particular for boiling heat transfer and critical heat flux. These features lead to increase the power density of the nuclear reactor. In this paper, we investigate the neutronic simulation of nanofluids as a primary coolant in VVER-440 reactor and study the availability of using it without changing the system characteristics. The analysis of nanofluid fuel assembly is performed by using Serpent code. As a result of changing effective multiplication factor of the six types of nanoparticles which have been studied extensively for their heat transfer prosperities and absorption cross sections including Al 2 O 3 , Si, Zr, TiO 2 , CuO, and Ti with different volume fractions, it can be concluded the optimum nanoparticles are alumina at concentration 0.01 volume fraction.
- ПубликацияОткрытый доступModeling and criticality calculation of the Molten Salt Fast Reactor using Serpent code(2019) Ashraf, O.; Smirnov, A. D.; Tikhomirov, G. V.; Смирнов, Антон Дмитриевич; Тихомиров, Георгий Валентинович© 2019 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. In Molten Salt Fast Reactors (MSFR), a liquid-fuel circulates through the cylinder core and transport the fission heat to the Intermediate external Heat Exchangers (IHX), therefore liquid salt allows carrying the fuel and transfer heat. The MSFR supposed to work in a closed Th-based fuel cycle with a full reprocessing of fission products and all actinides in the core. The aim of this paper is; modeling the primary circuit of the MSFR (based on the European model) in order to identify the composition of the start-up fuel required to the criticality. In conclusion, the compositions of the start-up liquid fuel required for criticality and long life cycle were determined precisely for three different types of fissile materials ( 233 UF 4 , PuF 3 and TRUF 3 ).
- ПубликацияТолько метаданныеCurrent status of SMRs and S&MRs development in the world(2023) Pioro, I. L. ; Duffey, R. B. ; Kirillov, P. L. ; Dort-Goltz, N. ; Тихомиров, Георгий Валентинович; Смирнов, Антон Дмитриевич; Smirnov, A. D.; Tikhomirov, G. V.This chapter examines Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), which are modular-type nuclear reactors with installed capacities ≤ 300 MWel with claimed features of “modularity” in design, production, and/or construction, and Small- and Medium-size Reactors (S&MRs), with installed capacities ≤ 300 MWel (Small) and > 300–700 MWel (Medium-size), many having claimed features of “modularity” in design, production, and/or construction. The requirements and objectives for any and all new nuclear reactors of any and all sizes are given as: safer than previous “generations”; having low financial risk exposure and capital cost; ease and speed of build; readily licensable; simple to operate and secure; assured fuel supply and sustainability; providing social value and acceptance; and still being competitive. Existing SMRs and S&MRs are tabulated by type, country, and status. Although many SMR designs and concepts have been proposed, Russia is the first country in the world to develop, design, and put into operation two SMRs, and Russian technology is examined in detail in this chapter, with numerous diagrams and photos of various systems provided.
