Research project description: |
||
A computer simulation program will be developed to fully describe the heat transfer in solid nuclear fuel using the Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) technique. The phonon distribution in the fuel will be simulated as a function of space, momentum, and time. Furthermore, the temperature distribution and heat flux will be computed as moments of the phonon distribution and as functions of space and time. |
