[EN] The early detection of anomalies through the analysis of the neutron noise recorded by in-core and ex-core instrumentation gives the possibility to take proper actions before such problems lead to safety concerns or ...

[EN] The mechanical vibrations of fuel assemblies have been shown to give rise to high levels of neutron noise, triggering in some circumstances the necessity to operate nuclear reactors at a reduced power level. This work ...

[EN] The solution of the time-dependent neutron diffusion equation can be approximated using quasi-static methods that factorise the neutronic flux as the product of a time dependent function times a shape function that ...

[ES] Para el análisis de la seguridad de un reactor nuclear, es necesario simular de manera muy precisa la evolución de la potencia del reactor a lo largo del tiempo. El valor de la potencia del reactor depende de múltiples ...

[EN] In nuclear engineering, the lambda-modes associated with the neutron diffusion equation are applied to study the criticality of reactors and to develop modal methods for the transient analysis. The differential ...

[ES] En este trabajo se presenta la experiencia de introducir la herramienta Kahoot en las sesiones de prácticas de informática de la asignatura Matemáticas II de la titulación del grado de Ingeniería Electrónica y Automática ...

[EN] The behaviour of the neutrons inside a nuclear reactor core can be modelled by using the time dependent neutron diffusion equation. Different time schemes have been used to integrate this equation. One possibility is ...

[EN] The mechanical vibrations of core internals such as fuel assemblies (FAs) cause oscillations in the neutron flux that require in some circumstances nuclear power plants to operate at a reduced power level. This work ...

[EN] The steady-state simplified spherical harmonics equations (SPNequations) are a higher order approximation to the neutron transport equations than the neutron diffusion equation that also have reasonable computational ...
