    Abstract : This project deals with the CFD modelling of a free surface flow. The aim is to develop and validate a fast and accurate numerical model for stratified two-phase flows. Volume of Fluid (VOF) multiphase model is employed. The purpose is to use the developed numerical model for the design of an element within a compact nuclear reactor. READ MORE

  5. 4. Machine Learning model applied to Reactor Dynamics

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Dionysios Dimitrios Nikitopoulos; [2023]
    Keywords : Master Thesis; Machine Learning; stability; Energy distribution profiles; Prediction; frequency; decay ratio; Data processing; POLCA-T; Pytorch; testing data; RMSE. ii;

    Abstract : This project’s idea revolved around utilizing the most recent techniques in MachineLearning, Neural Networks, and Data processing to construct a model to be used asa tool to determine stability during core design work. This goal will be achieved bycollecting distribution profiles describing the core state from different steady statesin five burn-up cycles in a reactor to serve as the dataset for training the model.
