Description

The criticality problem of the neutron transport equation was solved for various configurations of the fuel rod lattices by using the MCNP code. A continuous representation of the cross-sections was employed and all computations were performed multiply using data based on the ENDF/B-4, ENDF/B-5, and ENDF/B-6 libraries, respectively. The data library used was found to affect appreciably the resulting multiplication factor value. 1 tab., 5 figs., 8 refs
