This workshop will demonstrate the usage of MOOSE-based and MOOSE wrapped applications, which are used for high fidelity analysis of several advanced reactor designs. The training will focus on multiscale and multiphysics analyses of pebble bed reactors. The CFD codes NekRS, Pronghorn, and Cardinal will be demonstrated along with Griffin, the NEAMS reactor transport application. The MOOSE’s Multiapp and Transfer systems will be addressed in detail and used for coupling these applications to capture critical physics-based feedback mechanisms critical to the passive safety features of advanced reactors. The workshop is a joint effort between Argonne and Idaho National Laboratories researchers.
