North American construction is back—smaller and faster—at OPG’s Darlington
“The nuclear renaissance is real here,” said Ontario Power Generation’s Subo Sinnathamby on May 8, one year to the day after OPG secured a final investment decision to build the first of four planned BWRX-300 reactors at its Darlington nuclear power plant, and shortly after the new reactor’s foundation was lifted into place. “We got our license to construct in April and our [final investment decision] in May, and we’ve been off to the races since.”

The SCENIC code package has been developed to integrate self-consistently an anisotropic pressure magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium state with power absorption from ion cyclotron resonance heating and with a guiding center particle distribution function for the energetic particles generated in three-dimensional geometry. The main novelty constitutes the inclusion of the background equilibrium state in the iterative procedure, an approach that has not been previously addressed. Applications to tokamaks and stellarators demonstrate viability of the model considered.
