| dc.description.abstract | © 2020 Elsevier LtdIn this study, we analyze different methods for the generation of homogenized few-group cross sections (XS) using continuous-energy Monte Carlo codes Serpent 2.1.29 and MCU–PTR for full-core diffusion calculation of small-size light water research reactors. Few-group reaction cross sections, scattering matrices and diffusion coefficients generated in an infinite lattice model with and without B1-leakage correction of spectra, and in full-scale 3D core calculations, are compared. Few-group XS are used in the TIGRIS diffusion nodal simulator to calculate the simplified cores with IRT-3 M fuel and a light water reflector. Special attention is paid to the impact of diffusion coefficients on the results of diffusion calculations. We compare the following different methods for the generation of diffusion coefficients: the usual “out-scatter” approximation, the transport correction for hydrogen implemented in Serpent, and the migration method implemented in MCU–PTR. | |
