Field transfers from SuperFINIX meshes to FINIX meshes

Power from SuperFINIX to FINIX

SuperFINIX receives power densities in blocks that have to be discretized in the radial nodes of FINIX. This discretization is based on assumption that the number of axial elements remains unchanged before and after the discretization. Therefore the discretization is only performed in the radial dimension. The main solvers in FINIX assume linear scaling of power density (and most other variables) between two nodal points. Because of this assumption, the power densities have to adjusted when integrating over a volume element which is spanned by two radial nodes in different power density blocks. this conserves the total power over the volumes of single elements and the whole fuel rod volume. As such, the following method has to be used:

 P = \int\limits_{r_i}^{r'_{i}} \rho_i \text{d}V + \int\limits_{r'_i}^{r_{i+1}} \rho_{i+1} \text{d}V= \int\limits_{r_i}^{r_{i+1}} \left(\rho_i + \rho_{i+1} \right)\, \text{d}V
