In this study, building on the author’s previous experience in the simulation of the MSRE system, a similar approach was used to model the dual fluid reactor design. The work was done using a modified version of the system code TRACE capable of simulating molten salt and metal flows and the transport of the neutron precursors with the flowing fuel, and the Monte Carlo based Serpent code to generate the appropriate core neutronic data used in the point kinetics models of TRACE.
