FEMB, 2-D Homogeneous Neutron Diffusion in X-Y Geometry with Keff Calculation, Dyadic Fission Matrix

Description

1 - Nature of physical problem solved: The two-dimensional neutron diffusion equation (xy geometry) is solved in the homogeneous form (Keff calculation). The boundary conditions specify each group current as a linear homogeneous function of the group fluxes (gamma matrix concept). For each material, the fission matrix is assumed to be dyadic. 2 - Method of solution: Finite element formulation with Lagrange type elements. Solution technique: SOR with extrapolation. 3 - Restrictions on the complexity of the problem: Maximum order of the Lagrange elements is 6
