msre
detailed cad model of the msre (molten salt reactor experiment), operated by oak ridge national laboratory 1965-69.
msre core
core/msrecore.pdf lists reference of the msre core design, documented in the old msre reports and located here.
msre step files
step files of entire msre assembly and control rod.
h5m
h5m surface mesh of the previous step files for OpenMC simulation.
Note: the h5m files are generated with Coreform Cubit with a surface tolerance of 1e-2 cm.
docker msre
msre docker conatiner which includes not only support for OpenMC with DAGMC/MOAB, embree, and double_down libraries, but also a Jupyter notebook server.
openmc notebooks
openmc notebooks of the msre in form of jupyter notebooks.
Examples include:
- msre cad with settable control rods
- msre isothermal temperature coefficient calculation
- msre depletion analysis with fission products removal
prerequisites
openmc
openmc automated source installation scripts for linux can be found here
CAD_to_openMC
CAD_to_openMC is an open-source package to convert CAD geometry (in the form of '.step' files) into an openmc-readable h5m file
msre heat exchangers
open-access master's thesis produced by Malcolm Akner about simulations of the heat exchangers of the msre, titled:
Validating results from the Molten Salt Reactor Experiment by use of turbulent CFD simulations
- A study of a modified U-tube shell-and-tube primary heat exchanger and radiator with molten salts
msre primary heat exchanger
onshape primary heat exchanger cad model, open to copy and use freely. chapter 4.1 in the thesis mentioned above covers the cad construction details extensively with references to original msre reports.
simscale primary heat exchanger simulation model. simulation results for primary heat exchanger can be viewed in chapter 6.2.2.1 of the thesis, with comparisons to msre data in chapter 7.1.1.
primary heat exchanger produced and installed in the msre.
msre radiator
onshape radiator cad model open to copy and use freely. chapter 4.2 of the thesis covers the cad construction details with origianl references to msre reports.
radiator produced and installed in the msre.
