“…Two general strategies are available for spatial integration within multiphysics applications, where the multiple physics models each apply across the entire domain (Hansen and Owen, 2008; Dubcova et al, 2011). The first strategy is based on the use of a single mesh that spans the entire domain.…”

“…This feature must be systematically addressed due to the impact in a modeled reactor. The impact is expected to happen mainly due to the approximations done by the calculation methods on curved regions in the geometry [7]. Therefore, a grid sensitivity evaluation ensures the quality of the achieved result [8].…”

“…This leads to the utilization of coarse meshes for the sake of decreasing computational demand [10]. Coarse meshes in curved shapes insert mass error in the calculations regardless of deterministic or stochastic approaches [7,8,11]. These errors will unintentionally give discrepancies in the values of the reactor state (effective multiplication factor -keff) of the system [12].…”

“…However, 3D simulations performed with containment codes come with a strong drawback: the time needed to implement the geometry and develop the computational mesh. This is normally the most time consuming activity when using CFD codes, (Hansen and Owen, 2008).…”
