Optimizing the core loading pattern and fuel composition in a hexagonal small modular nuclear reactor via ANN-PSO approach

Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), such as the NuScale Power Module (NPM), have gained considerable attention in recent years. However, significant efforts are needed to enhance safety. The utilization of hexagonal Fuel Assemblies (FAs) offers numerous benefits from both neutronic and thermal-hydraulic...
