Beyond basic diffusion, advanced design requires solving the Boltzmann Transport Equation. Engineers use high-fidelity Monte Carlo simulations (like MCNP or OpenMC) to model neutron populations in complex geometries. 2. Thermal-Hydraulics & Heat Transfer
Advanced design is not just about physics; it is about compliance and economics. This includes to quantify safety margins and Life Cycle Analysis to manage decommissioning and waste from the outset.
