Description
Summary of the results obtained between ANL and CEA to model various SFR cores in the frame of the WPRS benchmark: ANL used MC2-3/REBUS-3 system with ENDF/B-VII.0 library; CEA and ANL used the ERANOS system with JEFF3.1 and ENDF/B-VII.0 libraries; MCNP was used at ANL for BOC benchmark with JEFF3.1 and ENDF/B-VII.0 libraries. Furthermore a large difference was observed for K-effective between JEFF3.1 and ENDF/B-VII.0 (main responsible: Pu-238, Pu-239, Pu-240, Na-23; some other isotopes like U-238, Fe-56, O-16 might also have a large impact; the smaller reactivity change (JEFF3.1 → ENDF/B-VII.0), for MOX-3600 with respect to MET-1000, is due to the error cancelation and not to a better agreement between the two libraries
