Notice Information

Notice Title

STAR CCM+ SOFTWARE RENEWAL

Notice Description

NNL's thermal and structural modelling area is a growing capability and plays an essential role in solving complex problems throughout the nuclear industry. As part of this capability a computational fluid dynamics software package capable of considering a range of physics is required. Having a robust multiphase and particle dynamics modelling capability is key to answering future challenges of the nuclear industry that includes but not limited to interim and long term fuel storage, post operational clear out (POCO), hydrogen flammability and understanding the transport of solid particulates in and around plant systems and infrastructure.
