Radiation Transport from the Bottom of the Reactor Core to the Bottom of the Reactor Pressure Vessel of the PBMR

  • 1. PBMR (Proprietary), Limited. Lake Buena Vista Building, Centurion South Africa (South Africa)

Description

This paper describes the methodology used to perform the transport of neutrons from the bottom of the reactor core up to a surface below the reactor pressure vessel of the PBMR. The calculations were done with the MCNP code. A fairly detailed analysis of the Weight Windows used as variance reduction for the MCNP calculations is presented as well as a sensitivity analysis about different ways to construct fixed sources for the MCNP code.
