The OECD Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) Nuclear Science Committee (NSC) established the Expert Group on Multi-physics Experimental Data, Benchmarks and Validation (EGMPEBV) in 2014 to bridge the gap between advanced, multi-physics simulation capabilities and the relatively low availability of dedicated, high-fidelity experimental data and benchmarks specifically for multi-physics modelling and simulation tools. The EGMPEBV was mandated to establish mechanisms for the certification of experimental data and benchmark models and to establish the processes and procedures for the validation of multi-physics modelling and simulation tools. The EGMPEBV oversees three task forces, covering (1) experimental data qualification and benchmark evaluation, (2) validation guidelines and needs and (3) example application of validation experiments. These have generated numerous reports surveying the state-of-the-art in multi-physics validation, challenge areas and recommendations for the evaluation of multi-physics benchmarks, while in parallel developing the specifications for multi-physics benchmarks. Three benchmark specifications are in active development, including a reactivity compensation scenario in the Rostov Unit 2 VVER-1000, multi-cycle depletion of the TVA Watts Bar Unit 1 and study of pellet cladding mechanical interaction within ramp tests performed at the Studsvik R2 reactor. We provide an overview of the recent progress in these areas and a summary of the future activities of the EGMPEBV in establishing international multi-physics benchmarks. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
