Pressurized Thermal Shock (PTS) Facility: “The Cold Leg Mixing CFD-UQ benchmark”
The 5th benchmark of CFD applications to Nuclear reactor safety has been approved by CSNI. Its main objective is to go a step further in the application of single-phase CFD to nuclear safety issues with mixing problems possibly in presence of buoyancy effects. The Pressurized Thermal Shock (PTS) … [Read more...]
The V&V Benchmark Problem: Twin Jet Experimental Facility
In early 2016, the ASME Verification and Validation in Computational Nuclear System Thermal Fluids Behavior Committee (ASME V&V30 Standard Committee) has selected the high-fidelity experimental data obtained in the Twin Jets experimental facility as the first V&V benchmark problem. The … [Read more...]
