Progress toward Monte Carlo-thermal hydraulic coupling using low-order nonlinear diffusion acceleration methods

A new approach for coupled Monte Carlo (MC) and thermal hydraulics (TH) simulations is proposed using low-order nonlinear diffusion acceleration methods. This approach uses new features such as coarse mesh finite difference diffusion (CMFD), multipole representation for fuel temperature feedback on...
