Description: |
The Consortium for Advanced Simulation of Light Water Reactors (CASL) brings together an exceptionally capable team that will
apply existing modeling and simulation (M&S) capabilities and develop advanced capabilities to create a usable environment
for predictive simulation of light water reactors (LWRs). The virtual reactor (VR) simulation capability, known as the Virtual
Environment for Reactor Applications (VERA), will incorporate science-based models, state-of-the-art numerical methods, modern
computational science and engineering practices, and uncertainty quantification (UQ) and validation against data from operating
pressurized water reactors (PWRs). It will couple state-of-the-art fuel performance, neutronics, thermal-hydraulics (T-H),
and structural models with existing tools for systems and safety analysis and will be designed for implementation on both
today's leadership-class computers and the advanced architecture platforms now under development by the U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE).
