Boundary element method for the homogenization of the baffle/reflector

  • 1. Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Taejon (Korea, Republic of)

Description

In this study, the boundary element method (BEM) is used to treat the homogenization of the baffle and reflector. First, the multigroup diffusion equations (MDE) within the core are solved using BEM as a source problem under the assumption that the core material is uniformly distributed. Then, the solution to MDE for the water reflector which should be extended infinite can be attained from a boundary source probIem aIso via BEM. Finally, these two solutions are coupled through aIbedos of the sIab-shaped baffle so that one could obtain heterogeneous interface currents and fluxes between the core and the baffle/reflector resulting in the location-dependent equivalent parameters for the baffle/reflector
