Description
One of the technique that can be used to ensure equivalence between a fine mesh multigroup transport problem and a coarse mesh few group diffusion problem consists in modifying the diffusion equation using assembly discontinuity factors. Here we describe an approximation technique that can be used to compute these assembly discontinuity factors using the code DRAGON. Applications of this technique to CANDU 3-D supercell problems are presented. (author)
