The paper aims to provide a comprehensive review on the achievements made on moving
particle semi-implicit (MPS) method and the applications in nuclear engineering. The state …

This paper mainly reviews the research progress on multiphase flow in nuclear engineering.
This paper is composed of three parts. The first part documents a literature statistical …

Corium (lava-like mixture of fissile material) spreading prediction is of great significance in
the severe accidents of nuclear power plants. Crust formation due to solidification …

A multi-resolution technique for particle methods, the overlapping particle technique (OPT),
is explained in detail. The OPT expresses a whole simulation domain with partially …

In a postulated severe accident, the in-vessel debris remelting may result in severe local hot
spots, probably threatening the reactor pressure vessel (RPV). The moving particle semi …

Modeling the boiling phase change is particularly challenging for Lagrangian particle
methods due to a high density ratio and dramatic volume expansion. In this study, the …

The potential reasons for the corium spreading difference over inert ceramic and reactive
concrete channels of VULCANO VE-U7 experiment are investigated using Moving Particle …

Optimizing melt spreading in the aftermath of a core disruptive accident is crucial for
achieving sufficient melt cooling to maintain reactor containment integrity. Two≈ 30 kg-scale …

Using a core catcher in the nuclear reactor is a tremendous idea to minimize the risk when
the core of the reactor experiences melting conditions. In developing the core catcher …

In order to supplement the investigation of boundary conditions for the MPS method, a
general computational algorithm of symmetric boundary condition for MPS is presented to …
