Blades-in turbine inspections at Quad Cities set new benchmark for Constellation
When Constellation decided to install replacement Alstom low-pressure turbines at three of its boiling water reactor plants more than 15 years ago, one benefit was knowing the new turbines should operate reliably—and without major inspections—for several years.

This workshop will demonstrate the usage of MOOSE-based and MOOSE wrapped applications, which are used for high fidelity analysis of several advanced reactor designs. The training will focus on multiscale and multiphysics analyses of pebble bed reactors. The CFD codes NekRS, Pronghorn, and Cardinal will be demonstrated along with Griffin, the NEAMS reactor transport application. The MOOSE’s Multiapp and Transfer systems will be addressed in detail and used for coupling these applications to capture critical physics-based feedback mechanisms critical to the passive safety features of advanced reactors. The workshop is a joint effort between Argonne and Idaho National Laboratories researchers.
