Description

Typical problems arising in 2- or 3-D diffusion calculations of flux distributions in nuclear systems using iterative methods are illustrated. The problems of the initial guess, reliability of the converged solution and round off errors are considered. Examples of PWR core computations are given and discussed. (author)
