Description

A set of fast critical benchmarks from Cross-sections Evaluation Working Group (CSEWG) and the International Criticality Safety Benchmark Evaluation Project (ICSBEP) are simulated in Monte Carlo using openMC-0.10.0 for the important parameter Keff . Nuclear data processing code NJOY-2016 was used to process raw cross-section data from Evaluated Nuclear Data File (ENDF)/B-VIII.O. The set of problems would test the performance of the codes and the cross-section library for a variety of fissile and reflector materials. (author)
