Description

A fuel management code CGFMAC and a optimization code OPCGFM for PWR are encoded with the Core-Wise Green's Function Method (CGFM). They are qualified by Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant's problems. The numerical results demonstrate that the CGFM method is about 10 times faster than the advanced nodal Green's function method such as NGFM, and about 20 times faster than the coarse mesh difference method. All results calculated with these different methods agree well with each other. It is demonstrated that the CGFMAC and OPCGFM can be used in the core design for PWR
