Abstract
Molten salts are used as heat-conducting media in liquid salt reactors and solar installations. Knowledge of the thermal conductivity of molten salt is necessary for the safe operation of these units. Computational methods are an alternative way to the hard-to-reach experimental way of determining thermal conductivity. In this work, the temperature dependence of the thermal conductivity of the molten salt FLiNaK, as well as this molten salt with NdF3 dissolved in it, was calculated using the method of equilibrium molecular dynamics. The temperature trend of thermal conductivity, as well as its change after the dissolution of NdF3 in FLiNaK, is explained based on the determination of the dynamic network of ionic bonds that exists in the molten salt model. Networks of ionic bonds were established with an upper limit of interionic distance of 0.2 nm for both types of salt melts and with a limit of 0.27 nm for the Nd–F network in a melt containing NdF3. These networks of bonds appear in different parts of the system over time and may disappear completely. The total number of dynamic network nodes, determined during the correlation of heat flows, has an impact on the thermal conductivity value of the simulated system. A new method for interpreting the temperature behavior of the thermal conductivity of molten salt in a computer model can be used for predictive purposes when fluorides of various lanthanides and actinides are dissolved in salt melts.
