The Griffin workshop will provide participants with a comprehensive understanding and hands-on training of advanced reactor simulation capabilities in Griffin.
Morning session (8am – 12pm): focuses on prismatic-type high temperature reactor (HTR) applications, including hands-on training in mesh and cross section generation, depletion, and core transport calculations in steady-state and transient conditions.
Afternoon session (1pm – 5pm): focuses on fast reactor (FR) applications, including hands-on training in mesh generation and cross section generation workflow, core transport calculations in steady-state and transient conditions, and fuel management capability.
The registration deadline to ensure software download for the hands-on workshop is Wednesday, April 9th, at midnight.
