Title: Substantiation of parameters of the geometric model of the research reactor core for the calculation using the Monte Carlo method

Journal Article · · Physics of Atomic Nuclei

The choice of the spatial nodalization for the calculation of the power density and burnup distribution in a research reactor core with fuel assemblies of the IRT-3M and VVR-KN type using the program based on the Monte Carlo code is described. The influence of the spatial nodalization on the results of calculating basic neutronic characteristics and calculation time is investigated.
