Nuclear codes and data libraries at GRS for reactivity and nuclide inventory calculations

  • 1. Gesellschaft fuer Anlagen- und Reaktorsicherheit (GRS) mbH Forschungsinstitut, 85748 Garching (Germany)

Description

An overview is given on the nuclear codes and data libraries that are applied at GRS for reactivity and nuclide inventory calculations. The programme system KENOREST was developed for reactivity and burnup calculations by coupling the 3. Monte Carlo code KENO with the 1D burnup code OREST. The capability of this code system will be presented together with results for typical applications. In addition, results of calculations for critical experiments will be presented that have been performed with Monte Carlo codes MCNP and KENO as well as with deterministic neutron transport codes for the qualification of these codes and the nuclear data libraries generated on the basis of JEF-2.2.
