Research on Parallel Sub-channel Simulation of Full-core Thermal Fluid of Fast Reactor

  • 摘要: 采用简化堆芯模型的传统子通道模拟计算结果难以精确反映堆芯的真实运行状况,利用高性能计算技术进行全堆芯精确到每个真实流道的子通道模拟计算成为研究热点。本文抽象描述了快堆堆芯的基础几何结构,在此基础上提出了一种全堆芯子通道建模方法和一种自适应的并行任务划分方法。设计了广度优先划分算法和层次划分算法,实现了全堆芯子通道任意个数求解域的划分,自适应地映射到不同个数的计算核上,从而可利用PC、集群、超算等不同规模的计算资源开展全堆并行模拟。使用针对快堆模拟修改后的子通道模拟软件CTF进行验证,证明了建模方法对于快堆子通道模拟是有效的。基于本文方法在曙光先进计算服务平台上使用两种不同网格规模的算例进行了测试,两组测试最低并行效率在33.02%以上,证明了本文方法的有效性和可用性。

     

    Abstract: It can be inaccurate for reflecting the real operating conditions of the reactor core when applying simplified reactor core models to sub-channel simulations in traditional approach. The employment of high-performance computing technology has led to an increased amount attention on the simulation of refined full-core and real-channel-resolved. In this paper, an abstract description for the basic geometric structure of the fast reactor core was presented. Based on the abstract description, a full-core sub-channel modeling method and an adaptive parallel task division method were proposed. The breadth-first division algorithm and the hierarchical division algorithm were designed to realize the division of any number of solution domains of the full-core sub-channels. The division results adaptively mapped to different numbers of computing cores so that computing resources of different scales such as PCs, clusters and supercomputing machines could be used to carry out parallel simulations of the full-core. The sub-channel simulation software CTF, which was modified for fast reactor simulation, was used to verify the effectiveness of the modeling method for fast reactor subchannel simulation. Based on the test on the Sugon advanced computing service platform under two different grid-scale examples, the minimum parallel efficiency of the two test sets is over 33.02%, which proves the effectiveness and availability of the proposed method.
