Transport-corrected flux-moment homogenization method for generating P0 multigroup cross-section based on continuous energy Monte-Carlo
The scattering anisotropy multigroup cross-section (MGXS) with respect to the outgoing angle, as well as the anisotropy of the total MGXS with respect to the incident angle, are critical for generating high-precision MGXS used in transport core calculations. A TC-MHT method based on continuous energy Monte-Carlo is developed to generate high-accuracy P0 MGXS. This method addresses scattering anisotropy using transport correction (TC) and handles the anisotropy of total cross-section through the flux-moment homogenization technique (MHT). This method is validated using the Megapower benchmark. In reactivity calculations, the bias is decomposed and the reasons for the bias are analyzed. The bias is reduced to less than 160 pcm by using the TC-MHT method. For calculations of control drum worth, the bias does not exceed 0.2%. In power calculations, the maximum pin-by-pin power distribution deviation is within 4%. This demonstrates that TC-MHT method can generate high-precision, highly adaptable MGXS for deterministic code.
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.
