Scalability of Nek5000 on High-Performance Computing Clusters Toward Direct Numerical Simulation of Molten Pool Convection
In a postulated severe accident, a molten pool with decay heat can form in the lower head of a reactor pressure vessel, threatening the vessel’s structural integrity. Natural convection in molten pools with extremely high Rayleigh (Ra) number is not yet fully understood as accurate simulation of the...
