A Study of Neutronics Effects of the Spacer Grids in a Typical PWR via Monte Carlo Calculation
Spacer grids play an important role in maintaining the proper form of the fuel assembly structure and ensuring the safety of reactor core design. This study applies the Monte Carlo method to the analysis of the neutronics effects of spacer grids in a typical pressurized water reactor (PWR). The core...
