The aim of the research described in this paper is to perform consistent comparative analyses of two different approaches for coupling of two-scale, two-physics phenomena in reactor core calculations. The physical phenomena of interest are the neutronics and the thermal-hydraulics core behaviors and their interactions, while the spatial scales are the “global” (assembly/channel-wise) and the “local” (pin/sub-channel-wise). The objective is three-fold: qualification of coupled code systems by consistent step-by-step cross-comparison (in order to understand the prediction deviations in both neutronics and thermal-hydraulics parameters); assessment of fine scale (local/subchannel-wise) thermal-hydraulic effects; and evaluation of the impact of on-line modeling of interactions of the two spatial scales. The reported work is within the cooperation between the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM), Spain and the Pennsylvania State University (PSU), USA. The paper first presents the two multi-scale coupled code systems followed by cross-comparisons for steady state calculations. Selected results are discussed to highlight some of the issues involved in comparative analysis of coupled multi-scale simulations. The transient comparisons are subject of future work and publications.
