A steady-state CFD simulation optimized the geometry, and a transient analysis code was developed in FORTRAN and validated with CFD results. The findings show a sharp increase in fuel temperature immediately after the accident, followed by a decrease as natural circulation cools the reactor. Throughout the accident, component temperatures stayed within permissible limits, with the maximum fuel and heat pipe temperatures not exceeding 965.13 K and 972.5 K, respectively.
