The Molten Salt Reactor (MSR), one of the `Generation IV' concepts, is a liquid-fuel reactor, which is different from the conventional reactors using solid fissile materials due to the flow effect of fuel salt. The study on its neutronics considering the fuel salt flow, which is the base of the thermal-hydraulic calculation and safety analysis, must be done. In this paper, the theoretical model on neutronics under steady condition for a single-liquid-fueled MSR is conducted and calculated by numerical method. The neutronics model consists of two group neutron diffusion equations for fast and thermal neutron fluxes, and balance equations for six-group delayed neutron precursors considering the flow effect of fuel salt. The spatial discretization of the above models is based on the finite volume method, and the discretization equations are computed by the source iteration method. The distributions of neutron fluxes and the distributions of the delayed neutron precursors in the core are obtained. The numerical calculated results show that, the fuel salt flow has little effect on the distribution of fast and thermal neutron fluxes and the effective multiplication factor; however, it affects the distribution of the delayed neutron precursors significantly, especially the long-lived one. In addition, it could be found that the delayed neutron precursors influence the neutronics slightly under the steady condition. 相似文献

Molten fluorides are known to show favourable thermophysical properties which make them good candidate coolants for nuclear fission reactors. Here we investigate the special case of mixtures of lithium fluoride and thorium fluoride, which act both as coolant and as fuel in the molten salt fast reactor concept. By using ab initio parameterised polarisable force fields, we show that it is possible to calculate the whole set of properties (density, thermal expansion, heat capacity, viscosity and thermal conductivity) which are necessary for assessing the heat transfer performance of the melt over the whole range of compositions and temperatures. We then deduce from our calculations several figures of merit which are important in helping the optimisation of the design of molten salt fast reactors. 相似文献

A perturbation method is proposed to obtain the effective delayed neutron fraction β_(eff) of a cylindrical highly enriched uranium reactor.Based on reactivity measurements with and without a sample at a specified position using the positive period technique,the reactor reactivity perturbation △ρ of the sample in β_(eff) units is measured.Simulations of the perturbation experiments are performed using the MCNP program.The PERT card is used to provide the difference dκ of effective neutron multiplication factors with and without the sample inside the reactor.Based on the relationship between the effective multiplication factor and the reactivity,the equation β~(eff)=dκ/△ρ is derived.In this paper,the reactivity perturbations of 13 metal samples at the designable position of the reactor are measured and calculated.The average β_(eff) value of the reactor is given as 0.00645,and the standard uncertainty is 3.0%.Additionally,the perturbation experiments for β_(eff) can be used to evaluate the reliabilities of the delayed neutron parameters.This work shows that the delayed neutron data of ~(235)U and ~(238)U from G.R.Keepin's publication are more reliable than those from ENDF-B6.0.ENDF-B7.0,JENDL3.3 and CENDL2.2. 相似文献

We discuss the entropy of nonequilibrium steady states. We analyze the so-called spontaneous production of entropy in certain reversible deterministic nonequilibrium system, and its link with the collapse of such systems towards an attractor that is of lower dimension than the dimension of phase space. This means that in the steady state limit, the Gibbs entropy diverges to negative infinity. We argue that if the Gibbs entropy is expanded in a series involving 1, 2,... body terms, the divergence of the Gibbs entropy is manifest only in terms involving integrals whose dimension is higher than, approximately, the Kaplan–Yorke dimension of the steady state attractor. All the low order terms are finite and sum in the weak field limit to the local equilibrium entropy of linear irreversible thermodynamics. 相似文献

Modeling the heterogeneous traffic flow considering the effect of self-stabilizing and autonomous vehicles 下载免费PDF全文
With the increasing maturity of automatic driving technology,the homogeneous traffic flow will gradually evolve into the heterogeneous traffic flow,which consists of human-driving and autonomous vehicles.To better study the characteristics of the heterogeneous traffic system,this paper proposes a new car-following model for autonomous vehicles and heterogeneous traffic flow,which considers the self-stabilizing effect of vehicles.Through linear and nonlinear methods,this paper deduces and analyzes the stability of such a car-following model with the self-stabilizing effect.Finally,the model is verified by numerical simulation.Numerical results show that the self-stabilizing effect can make the heterogeneous traffic flow more stable,and that increasing the self-stabilizing coefficient or historical time length can strengthen the stability of heterogeneous traffic flow and alleviate traffic congestion effectively.In addition,the heterogeneous traffic flow can also be stabilized with a higher proportion of autonomous vehicles. 相似文献

Equation of state for solids considering cohesive energy and anharmonic effect and its application to MgO 下载免费PDF全文
A simple equation of state(EOS) in wide ranges of pressure and temperature is constructed within the MieGrneisen-Debye framework.Instead of the popular Birch-Murnaghan and Vinet EOS,we employ a five-parameter cold energy expression to represent the static EOS term,which can correctly produce cohesive energy without any spurious oscillations in the extreme compression and expansion regions.We developed a Pad’e approximation-based analytic Debye quasiharmonic model with high accuracy which improves the performance of EOS in the low temperature region.The anharmonic effect is taken into account by using a semi-empirical approach.Its reasonability is verified by the fact that the total thermal pressure tends to the lowest-order anharmonic expansion in the literature at low temperature,and tends to ideal-gas limitation at high temperature,which is physically correct.Besides,based on this approach,the anharmonic thermal pressure can be expressed in the Gru¨neisen form,which is convenient for applications.The proposed EOS is used to study the thermodynamic properties of MgO including static and shock compression conditions,and the results are very satisfactory as compared with the experimental data. 相似文献

In this paper, we study the effect of moving bottlenecks on traffic flow. The full velocity difference (FVD) model is extended to the traffic flow on a two-lane highway, and new lane changing rule is proposed to reproduce the vehicular lane changing behavior. Using this model, we derive the fundamental current-density diagrams for the traffic flow with the effect of moving bottleneck. Moreover, typical time-space diagram for a two-lane highway shows the formation and dissipation of a moving bottleneck. Results demonstrate that the effect of moving bottleneck enlarges with the increase of traffic density, but the effect can be reduced by increasing the maximum velocity of heavy truck. The effects of multiple moving bottlenecks under different conditions are investigated. The effect becomes more remarkable when the coupling effect of multiple moving bottlenecks occurs. 相似文献

In this paper, we propose an extended car-following model which takes into account the honk effect. The analytical and numerical results show that the honk effect improves the stability of traffic flow. The dependence of the stability on the properties of the honk effect is investigated in this paper. 相似文献

By introducing the traffic anticipation effect in the real world into the original lattice hydrodynamic model, we present a new anticipation effect lattice hydrodynamic (AELH) model, and obtain the linear stability condition of the model by applying the linear stability theory. Through nonlinear analysis, we derive the Burgers equation and Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation, to describe the propagating behaviour of traffic density waves in the stable and the metastable regions, respectively. The good agreement between simulation results and analytical results shows that the stability of traffic flow can be enhanced when the anticipation effect is considered. 相似文献

Charge state effect on the K-shell ionization of iron by xenon ions near the Bohr velocity 下载免费PDF全文
Fe K-shell ionization cross sections induced by 2.4–6.0 MeV Xe20+are measured and compared with different binaryencounter-approximation(BEA)models.The results indicate that the BEA model corrected both by the Coulomb repulsion and by the effective nuclear charge(Zeff)agrees well with the experimental data.Comparison of Fe K-shell X-ray emission induced by 5 MeV xenon ions with different initial charge states(20+,22+,26+,30+)verifies the applicability of the effective nuclear charge(Zeff)correction for the BEA model.It is found that Zeffcorrection is reasonable to describe direct ionization induced by xenon ions with no initial M-shell vacancies.However,when the M shell is opened,the Zeffcorrected BEA model is unable to explain the inner-shell ionization,and the electron transfer by molecular-orbital promotion should be considered. 相似文献
