Rossi Biología CFD Thermal hydraulics Properties Molten salt The molten salt reactors are a kind of nuclear reactor that had received additional attention worldwide due to their inherent safety features and the possibility of use the Thorium, a more abundant resource than Uranium, as a fuel. Despite of this promise concept and works being developed or under course, some aspects related to their thermal hydraulics should be better understand. In this work, the initial thermal-hydraulics results obtained using the ANSYS-CFX code are presented. The simulations were conducted in 3D for 1/16 of a cylinder volume that represents the molten reactor core. The results show a good agreement for this simplified geometry and for a theoretical power density distribution between the benchmark work and those obtained within this for the temperature.
