Question: How to develop a Simulink model that would allow simulating and: 1. Calculating the rate of heat generation of a fuel assembly (at any radius)

How to develop a Simulink model that would allow simulating and:

1. Calculating the rate of heat generation of a fuel assembly (at any radius) away from the

centre of the reactor core.

2. Estimating the maximum volumetric heat generation in the reactor axis.

The simulator should prompt users to input number of fuel assemblies, amount of generated heat

and radius of reactor's circular cross-section. Other factors such as average energy generated per

mol of fissionable material, value of the Bessel function of the first kind and order zero etc., should

be provided to the simulator.
