Abstract

The problems related to the making of the system software for the computational code intended for the execution of thermohydraulic calculations of nuclear plants with a liquid-metal heat carrier are considered. System software of the most popular computational thermohydraulic codes is reviewed. The system (the constructor of calculation models) developed by the author is described. This system allows automating the one of the most labor-intensive stages in the solution of the mathematical modeling problems mdash; the creation of computational models. This paper was recommended for publishing by the Program Committee of the International Supercomputer Conference «Research service in the Internet: the exaflops future» (http://agora.guru.ru/abrau2011).
