CTF-R: A novel residual-based thermal hydraulic solver

NUCLEAR ENGINEERING AND DESIGN, 348, 37–45.

By: N. Porter*, V. Mousseau* & M. Avramova n

author keywords: Subchannel analysis; Residual; CTF; COBRA
TL;DR: This work develops a novel residual-based code, CTF-R, which is not limited by the strict computational limitations of the early 1980’s, and can therefore be designed such that it is inherently flexible and easy to use. (via Semantic Scholar)

Implementation and assessment of wall friction models for LWR core analysis

ANNALS OF NUCLEAR ENERGY, 115, 565–572.

By: A. Toptan n, N. Porter n, R. Salko * & M. Avramova n

author keywords: Friction factor; CTF; Pressure drop; Subchannel analysis; Validation; Verification
TL;DR: The modeling of frictional pressure drop in the nuclear thermal hydraulics subchannel code, CTF, is improved through the addition of three new modeling options which allow the code to account for the effects of surface roughness and the third enables a user-supplied option.
