Creator:: Long, Alex R.
Abstract:: For over 30 years, the Implicit Monte Carlo (IMC) method has been used to solve challenging problems in thermal radiative transfer. These problems are typically optically thick and di ffusive, as a consequence of the high degree of "pseudo-scattering" introduced to model the absorption and reemission of photons from a...

Creator:: Schwinkendorf, Kevin N.
Abstract:: Two new concepts have been explored in solving the neutron diffusion equation in one and two dimensions. At the present time, the diffusion equation is solved using source iterations. These iterations are performed in a mathematical form which has a great deal of physical significance. Specifically, the neutron production term...

Creator:: Betts, Curt M.
Abstract:: The solution of coupled neutronic/thermal hydraulic nuclear reactor calculations requires the treatment of the nonlinear feedback induced by the thermal hydraulic dependence of the neutron cross sections. As a result of these nonlinearities, current solution techniques often diverge during the iteration process. These instabilities arise due to the low level...

Creator:: Zhang, Yi
Abstract:: In this study, a heterogeneous flow model is proposed based on a non-overlapping domain decomposition method. The model combines potential flow and incompressible viscous flow. Both flow domains contain a free surface boundary. The heterogeneous domain decomposition method is formulated following the Dirichlet-Neumann method. Both an implicit scheme and an...
