Intercomparison of neutron noise measurement systems in the CROCUS reactor

Andreas Pautz, Mathieu Hursin, Vincent Pierre Lamirand, Oskari Ville Pakari

In the framework of an international collaboration, the critical decay constant (α0 = β/Λ), and delayed neutron fraction (β) of the CROCUS reactor were measured by teams of EPFL/PSI, CEA and SCK•CEN research institutes using the Rossi-α and Power Spectral ...

Conceptual Design of a Sustainable Waste Burning Molten Salt Reactor

Boris Aviv Hombourger

For an energy source to qualify as sustainable, it must maximize the efficiency with which it uses natural resources while minimizing the amounts of waste it produces. Currently deployed nuclear power plants however use a very limited amount of the energy ...

One-dimensional fluid–structure interaction models in pressurized fluid-filled pipes: a review

Anton Schleiss, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso

The present review paper aims at collecting and discussing the research work, numerical and experimental, carried out in the field of Fluid–Structure Interaction (FSI) in one-dimensional (1D) pressurized transient flow in the time-domain approach. Backgrou ...

Propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging of aortic dissection in mice: from individual elastic lamella to 3D analysis

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Bram Trachet, Lydia Aslanidou

In order to show the advantage and potential of propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging in vascular pathology research, we analyzed aortic medial ruptures in BAPN/AngII-infused mice, a mouse model for aortic dissection. Ascending and thoraco-a ...

Neutronics modeling of the CROCUS reactor with SERPENT and PARCS codes

Andreas Pautz, Mathieu Hursin, Daniel Jerôme Siefman, Adolfo Rais

This paper reports the methodology used for the neutronic modelling of the CROCUS reactor and discusses the challenges encountered during the process. Full-core steady-state neutronics solutions were computed with the PARCS code. The Serpent Monte Carlo co ...
