NEUP CINRII-24-31318: Multi-physics fuel performance modeling of TRISO-bearing fuel in advanced reactor environments

The focus of this project is to develop and validate coupled multi-physics TRISO fuel performance models for high temperature gas cooled reactors, including both pebble bed modular high temperature gas cooled reactors and microreactors , as well as prismatic microreactors similar to eVinci. This builds upon our recent NEUP IRP project (20-22094) that was focused on pebble bed fluoride salt cooled high temperature reactors FHRs and historical prismatic mHTGR designs.
