Description
The paper describes homogenization methods used by the Core Analysis Group of the Brazilian Nuclear Energy Comission (CNEN) for safety analysis review of PWR reactors. Computer codes used are public domain codes with modification introduced in order to adapt to peculiarities of core design. Intercomparison between different methods are made. No experimental verification is presented, but is expected to be carried on during start-up tests. (author)
