Implementing bubbly mercury material model (R-P model) in the pulse simulation to predict strain on the Spallation Neutron Source target vessel with gas injection
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) creates neutrons by striking a liquid mercury target with short pulses of high-energy protons. SNS targets have been operated with helium microbubble gas injection into portions of the flowing mercury since 2017. The measurements during in situ testing showed that...
