A SUBCHANNEL COARSENING METHOD FOR Serpent2-SUBCHANFLOW APPLIED TO A FULL-CORE VVER PROBLEM

This work presents a methodology to coarsen subchannel models to accelerate largescale Serpent2-SUBCHANFLOW calculations. The method is based on first building a fully detailed subchannel model and then combining subchannels into larger channels with condensed hydraulic parameters. To quantify the a...
