Axial Gas Communication Modeling in the BISON Fuel Performance Code

Presentation requested by our collaborators on the technology commercialization fund project. This presentation provides an overview of the axial gas communication capabilities in the BISON fuel performance code. A discussion on models that impact gas communication, the theory behind the implementation, verification, and validation cases are presented.

EPRI/INL TCF Project on LOCA Analysis Tool: Statement of Work

Through the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Technology Commercialization Fund (TCF), Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and Idaho National Laboratory (INL) are partnering to develop an analysis tool focused on loss-of- coolant accident (LOCA) behavior of light-water reactor (LWR) fuel rods. This tool will involve a coupling of RELAP5- 3D and Bison. This report gives […]
