AbstractAbstract
[en] A series of benchmark tests has been performed since 1980 in order to examine the capability of JAERI's criticality-safety evaluation code-system JACS. This report presents the results of benchmark calculations on fissile array experiments with the Monte-Carlo code KENO-IV and the multigroup data library MGCL as a part of the JACS code-system. The experimental systems selected from USA publication vary in moderating ratio, physical/chemical property of nuclear fuel, reflecting condition, shape/size of array unit, distance between units, array size, from case to case. The calculated keff's for 108 cases in all distribute from 0.945 to 1.025. This distribution width is presumably due to the bias-errors in the calculated keff's, since the KENO-IV statistical error, some 0.007 at maximum standard deviation, predicts 1/2 or 1/3 of the width. The bias-errors in calculated keff's are acknowledged to be caused by the variation of the moderating ratio, the reflecting condition together with the distance between units. (author)
