A Small Modular Reactor (SMR) is a type of nuclear fission reactor that is smaller in size and output compared to traditional nuclear reactors. SMRs typically generate up to 300 MW, while conventional reactors have capacities of around 1,000 MW or more. SMRs are designed to be modular, meaning they can be assembled off-site and then transported to their final location for installation. This modularity can help reduce construction times and costs compared to traditional, large-scale reactors.

When developing an SMR, the need is important of using a complete and integrated platform to provide the owner and the operator with the right tools to deliver & operate the asset on time and on budget more sustainably with less risk.

Using a virtual twin enables multidisciplinary collaborative virtual modeling and simulation of complex buildings and facilities, the performance and behavior, as well as its schematics.

This approach allows teams to explore more alternatives in the context of accurately predicted experiences and to find the optimum design – as well as operating the complexity.
