Description
Many neutronics codes have been used to calculate for Dalat Research Reactor (DRR) from 1983 (the first critical of DRR in December, 1983). The purposes of all calculations are to know exactly many important parameters related to Reactor Physics and Neutron Physics in reactor core. The results from calculation play important role in core and fuel management for DRR. Especially basing on the results we can predict about fuel cycle, fuel burn up distribution and plan for using optimize remain fresh fuel assemblies of DRR. By using system neutronics code including transport codes, diffusion codes and Mote Carlo code, many characteristics of fuel assemblies and other parameters of whole core were received such as main features of VVR-M2 fuel assembly type, multiplication factor, neutron flux distribution, power distribution, burn up distribution, excess reactivity, control rods worth, neutron spectrum, temperature reactivity coefficient ect. In the paper, brief description all computer codes to being used in DRR and the calculation results from the codes above are presented. (author)
