Abstract

The NRIC VTB currently hosts over 45 models in a publicly available repository. This report provides highlights on the new additions to the library of advanced reactor modeling and simulation examples. All major reactor types are represented including HTGR, MSR, LMFR, FHR, and microreactors. Several of these models are benchmarks and include comparisons with experimental data. Several tutorials and demonstrations have been uploaded to accelerate the learning curve when repurposing the models hosted on the VTB to other needs or design. The VTB is expected to provide an open platform for collaboration and model development. External stakeholders are strongly encouraged to submit advanced reactor models, notably leveraging NEAMS-developed tools, to the online repository for the wider community to benefit.
