Abstract

This study presents the results of testing nuclear data libraries by analyzing statistical criteria obtained from comparing experimental and calculated rates for (n,2n), (n,p), (n,pn), (n,nꞌγ) (n,α) and (n,γ) reactions measured on samples ^natNi, ^natZr, ^natNb, ^natCd, ^natTi, ^natCo,^{63(96%), 65(99.70%)}Cu, ^64(99.70%)Zn, ^natIn, ^natAl, ^natMg, ^natFe, ^natAu and ^natTh, which were placed in the experimental channels of micromodels of the fusion blanket.

The “fast” (the cylinder Ø 230 mm and 520 mm length was filled with ∼ 67 kg of molten salt 0.52NaF + 0.48ZrF4) and the “thermal” blanket (the same cylinder was placed in a dry channel inside a cubic container filled with water with dimensions of 52.0 × 52.0 × 52.0 cm were investigated. The reaction rates were measured using the activation method.

Modeling with transport codes MCNP5, KIR, PHITS-3.31, SuperMC3.4.0 was performed using the ENDF/B-VII.0 library for neutron transport as well as seven neutron data libraries for reaction rates simulation, including: JEFF-3.3, JENDL-4.0, ENDF/B–VIII.0, ROSFOND-2010, FENDL-3.0, TENDL − 2019 and IRDFF-II.

期刊介绍： Annals of Nuclear Energy provides an international medium for the communication of original research, ideas and developments in all areas of the field of nuclear energy science and technology. Its scope embraces nuclear fuel reserves, fuel cycles and cost, materials, processing, system and component technology (fission only), design and optimization, direct conversion of nuclear energy sources, environmental control, reactor physics, heat transfer and fluid dynamics, structural analysis, fuel management, future developments, nuclear fuel and safety, nuclear aerosol, neutron physics, computer technology (both software and hardware), risk assessment, radioactive waste disposal and reactor thermal hydraulics. Papers submitted to Annals need to demonstrate a clear link to nuclear power generation/nuclear engineering. Papers which deal with pure nuclear physics, pure health physics, imaging, or attenuation and shielding properties of concretes and various geological materials are not within the scope of the journal. Also, papers that deal with policy or economics are not within the scope of the journal.
