Assessment of NJOY generated neutron heating factors based on JEF/EFF-1
Creators
Description
Using the NJOY nuclear data processing system, a coupled neutron-photon multigroup MATXS-formatted nuclear data library was generated on the Evaluated File JEF/EFF-1. The neutron heating factors contained in this VITAMIN-J structured library are compared with those of MACKLIB-IV. The main difference are due to the included decay heat of shortlived reaction products in MACKLIB-IV and/or due to too high/low photon production data of some JEF/EFF-1 isotopes. It is recommended to check carefully the energy balance of new evaluations containing photon production data. How this can be done with the help of the NJOY HEATER module is shown in the full version of this paper. (author) 2 figs., 3 refs
