Pin-by-pin calculations with QUABOX/CUBBOX using the super homogenization method
- 1. Gesellschaft fuer Anlagen- und Reaktorsicherheit (GRS) mbH, Garching (Germany)
Description
In this paper it was demonstrated that QUABOX/CUBBOX is capable to calculate a highly heterogeneous full-core problem with a pin-wise resolution. Using pin-wise homogenized cross sections adjusted by SPH factors it was demonstrated that the pin-power distribution for as well UOX and MOX assemblies can be obtained with a high accuracy. Compared to transport solvers the needed CPU time is very low such that coupled accident analysis using a pin-wise resolution comes into reach for standard application. (orig.)
