AI Thread Summary
Throttling orifice plates create localized pressure drops and are commonly used for flow measurement by assessing the pressure differential. For throttling applications, restrictors are typically preferred due to their design for flow restriction. Comprehensive fluid dynamics textbooks cover the principles of orifice plates and restrictors, including pressure loss considerations. A recommended resource is "Internal Flow Systems" by D S Miller, which provides valuable insights into these topics. Understanding the differences between orifice plates and restrictors is essential for effective flow management.

An orifice plate is usually used to provide a sharp, localised pressure drop, which is usually accompanied by a degree of downstream pressure recovery. This makes them ideal for flow measuring devices (strictly you use them to measure the delta-P, pressure drop across the orifice plate). For throttling or flow restriction it is more usual to use a restrictor (basically a piece of the pipe with a reduced flow area). Most decent books on fluid dynamics should cover how to treat orifice plates, restrictors etc. this includes aspects such as entry and exit pressure losses. The book "Internal Flow Systems" by D S Miller is a text I have used in the past.
 

Thread 'MCNP6 BURN Card Issue: Zero Burnup for Material in Fuel Assembly'

Hello everyone, I am currently working on a burnup calculation for a fuel assembly with repeated geometric structures using MCNP6. I have defined two materials (Material 1 and Material 2) which are actually the same material but located in different positions. However, after running the calculation with the BURN card, I am encountering an issue where all burnup information（power fraction(Initial input is 1,but output file is 0), burnup, mass, etc.） for Material 2 is zero, while Material 1...
