A simple hydride model for cerium ejecta particles

Cerium ejecta particles form after a shock wave impacts a cerium plate with a known roughness or prescribed surface perturbation. When these particles are ejected into hydrogen or deuterium gas the material reacts exothermically and raises the temperature of the particle relative to the gas. A simple model is developed, assuming that the particle remains intact and spherical, to capture the heat and mass transfer that occurs during this process. Model performance is evaluated by comparing with cerium ejecta experiments where the particles are ejected into deuterium gas at initial pressures of 4 and 8 atm. Overall, the model is able to capture the approximately 400 K increase in particle temperature above the surrounding gas temperature.

An Investigation of Variables Affecting Plutonium Hydriding (20210946DI): Surface Phase Transitions and Reactions

Tusas was originally developed for phase field simulation of solidification (see [33, 6, 32]) and evolution of polycrystalline solid mechanics (see [16]). Tusas is particularly developed for PDEs compatible with structured or unstructured Lagrange (nodal) finite element discretizations and explicit (Euler) or implicit (Euler, Trapezoid, BDF2) temporal discretizations.
