SIREN Group: Nuclear Reactor Simulation
The SIREN Group was established in 2016, with the purpose of elaborating a “Catalogue of Calculation Codes” that are used, implemented and/or developed by the organizations in the Spanish nuclear sector. This catalogue is very helpful for the Spanish companies in order to disseminate their capabilities in core simulation and nuclear plant safety. Furthermore, the […]
Users Group of Neutron Standards Laboratories (CEIDEN-GUN)
Introduction In the CEIDEN General Assembly, which was celebrated in 2011, it was agreed the creation of a group of potential users of the neutron standard laboratories in our country in order to get to know their capabilities, propose possible additional applications to those planned and promote the use thereof. In March 2012 the Neutron […]
Materials research group
Background The prediction of the service life of the components in a nuclear power plant is mainly based on the evaluation of the degradation of the materials due to the operating conditions, including periods of life extension / long term operation. In 2014, the Materials Degradation Working Group (GTDM) was set up, coordinated by the […]
