Description
Calculations of the methodical benchmark problem have been undertaken using methods developed at the AAEC and incorporated in the AUS modular code scheme (Robinson 1975a). These calculations for HEU and LEU fuel consist of cell burnup for the DIDO-type fuel element, and diffusion theory applied to an X-Y representation of reactor core. Brief descriptions of the computer codes used and their application to this problem are given, together with results for HEU and LEU fuel element cell burn-up and 2-dimensional diffusion theory (X-Y) reactor core calculations
