Abstract

This study addresses the critical need for accurate neutron diffusion modeling in cylindrical reactors, focusing on the two-energy groups neutron diffusion system. Such modeling is essential for optimizing reactor design and safety in nuclear engineering. The research primarily aims to enhance computational methods by transitioning from a traditional integer-order model to a more sophisticated fractional-order model, which can capture complex physical phenomena with greater precision. The study employs the Laplace Transform Method (LTM) to first solve the integer-order system and then extends this approach to a fractional-order system using the Caputo derivative, a method well-suited for systems with memory effects. To efficiently solve the resulting fractional-order model, we introduce the Modified Fractional Euler Method (MFEM), designed to improve numerical accuracy and stability. The effectiveness of this approach is demonstrated through specific numerical applications, such as simulating neutron flux distributions, which validate the model’s accuracy and its potential impact on advancing reactor physics. These applications showcase the practical relevance of the proposed methods and their contribution to improving nuclear reactor simulations.

Abstract

The two-energy neutron diffusion model in slab reactors characterizes neutron behavior across two energy groups: fast and thermal. Fast neutrons, generated by fission, decelerate through collisions, transitioning into thermal neutrons. This model employs diffusion equations to compute neutron flux distributions and reactor parameters, thereby optimizing reactor design and safety to ensure efficient neutron utilization and stable, sustained nuclear reactions. The primary objective of this research is to explore both analytical and numerical solutions to the two-energy neutron diffusion model in slab reactors. Specifically, we will utilize the Laplace transform method for an analytical solution of the two-energy neutron diffusion model. Subsequently, employing the Caputo differentiator, we transform the original neutron diffusion model into its fractional-order equivalents, yielding the fractional-order two-energy group neutron diffusion model in slab reactors. To address the resulting fractional-order system, we develop a novel approach aimed at reducing the 2β-order system to a β-order system, where β ∈ (0, 1]. This transformed system is then solved using the Modified Fractional Euler Method (MFEM), an advanced variation of the fractional Euler method. Finally, we present numerical simulations that validate our results and demonstrate their applicability.
