Abstract The Parallel and Highly Innovative Simulation for INL Code System (PHISICS) has
been under development at Idaho National Laboratory since 2010. It consists of several …

The passively safe modular High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor (mHTGR) design is one
of the primary concepts considered for Generation IV and Small Modular Reactor (SMR) …

This paper presents the application results of MCS/GAMMA+ to multi-physics analysis of
OECD/NEA modular high temperature gas-cooled reactor (MHTGR) benchmark Phase I …

Accurate, high-resolution full core simulations of prismatic high temperature reactors for
burnup and transient analysis remain a challenge. The cores are geometrically large, but …

The traditional two-step method of analysis is not accurate enough to represent the
neutronic effects present in the prismatic high temperature reactor concept. The long range …

The Idaho National Laboratory (INL) Advanced Reactor Technologies (ART) High-
Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor (HTGR) Methods group currently leads the Modular High …

The deterministic full core simulators require homogenized group constants covering the
operating and transient conditions over the entire lifetime. Traditionally, the homogenized …

Accurate, high-resolution full core simulations of prismatic high temperature reactors for
burnup and transient analysis remain a challenge. The cores are geometrically large, but …

This paper presented a high-resolution neutronic/thermal-hydraulics coupling approach
using Monte Carlo (MC) code RMC and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code ANSYS …

1.1. Nuclear Reactor and Power After the discovery of nuclear fission in 1938, the first
nuclear reactor, CP1 was designed and demonstrated for the self-sustaining chain reaction …
