    The full, seven-dimensional neutron transport equation is developed from physical intuition, and putting that intuition into math. Aspects of neutron creation and transport are introduced as needed - neutron energy birth spectrum, flux, current, and many different types of neutron cross sections (fission, capture, scattering, total). It all comes down to balance - we equate the ways in which a control volume (like a reactor) can gain and lose neutrons of a certain energy, in a certain direction.

    70 hours of watching 100’s of videos and finally....... someone actually states how neutrons are first introduced into the core to jump start the reaction.
    This information explains and answered many of my questions regarding how it is started and how it may be serviced.
    I am guessing that once a reactor is shut down and then left to “Cool down” the control rods could be removed and serviced along with the fuel rods.
    Lockdowns during a pandemic share make you think a lot. 🤔

    There is an interesting implication for molten salt reactors in professor Shorts point that it is the fission products in a nuclear reactor that release the gamma rays. In molten salt reactors you dissolve your fuel (uranium) in your coolant fluid to prevent loss of cooling accidents. You also typically pump your entire fluid through your heat exchanger. Since the fission products travel along with the fuel and the coolant fluid they will release gamma rays in the heat exchanger. So, now you have to shield both your reactor and your heat exchanger to block the harmful gamma rays in a molten salt reactor, as opposed to a solid fuel reactor where you just shield your reactor core.

      Having a primary and secondary loop would likely benefit the economics (assuming only the first HEX would need shielding), the diagram show on the molten salt reactor wiki page is show this way.

    It would be amusing to demonstrate it with a rather weak neutron source, a detector, and a few different materials. A while back i did this with a 120mCi Am/Be source and a variety of materials. The one that moderated the neutrons the best was a jar of coconut oil that made the detector go from a few dozen counts per minute to well over a thousand at a distance of approximately 1/2 a meter. Neutrons are very strange. 🤓😁😎

      Neutrons have a slightly higher mass than protons, and energy always spreads out, hot to cold and so on. Protons are the lightest baryons, but they just might decay in pions letting their positive charge off as a positron.

      @@muhammadfaridkhandaq4379 The theorem is about it. The double integration is over a closed surface, as domain. Analogue to the line integration in Green theorem. So, the mathematical formalism asks for that differentiation. But I'm not a mathematician, maybe I'm wrong.

    Thank you so much for the lecture. My only question is that do we multiply the "number density " by macroscopic c.s or by microscopic c.s? @5:36

    • @GabrielIvory
      @GabrielIvory 9 месяцев назад

      You multiply the number density by microscopic cross-section to get a macroscopic cross-section. He wrote it down wrong but explained it out loud correctly.

  • @shikshokio1
    @shikshokio1 2 года назад +1

    There are several mistakes in the transport equation. First, there shouldn’t be a volume integral dV in all the terms on the right. Because the dn/dt is for a specific volume element, or specific point in space r.
    Second, in the n,in term the chi(E) and the nu(E) are missing.

    • @shikshokio1
      @shikshokio1 2 года назад

      Also, the total cross section term shouldn’t have an integral at all! The reason that the reaction INTO may come from ANY dE dOmega, but the reaction FROM (the loss) is only from this specific dE dOmega.

    • @shikshokio1

      Also the leakage term shouldn’t have an integral at all.
