Solution of the 2D quasi-diffusion low-order equations using a coupled nodal/finite volume discretization in Cartesian and hexagonal geometry

Creator:

Nes, Razvan

Abstract:

An important improvement in the area of reactor core neutronic modeling is the development and use of the methods based on "quasi-diffusion" (QD) low-order equations. This family of methods takes into account the transport exactly using "functionals" computed by solving transport equations, and is amenable to solution with a variety...
