In the framework of the new passive safety systems developed by the French Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) for the second and third generations of nuclear reactors, a numerical simulation tool capable of modeling thin inflow obstacles is needed [1]. Considering its future use in shape optimization and thermalhydraulics safety studies, the tool must be the fastest, the most accurate and the most robust possible.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
