Simulation of neutron diffusion and transient analysis of MSR 后印本

摘要: Molten salt reactor (MSR) is a potential nuclear power reactor of Generation IV. The working process of the primary loop of an MSR is studied in this paper. A physical model is established to describe the coupled heat transfer for the MSR core channels, the temperature negative feedback and the neutron characteristics. The simulation code, NDP1D, has been developed with the object-oriented method, conducting the neutron diffusion and transient analysis in a parallel way. The simulation data and diagrams of neutron, power, flow rate and temperature can be obtained via graphical user interface. The simulation results can be used for further study on MSRs of larger dimensions and more complicated geometry.
