Advancements in generalized-geometry discrete ordinates transport for lattice physics calculations
Abstract
This paper describes the generalized-geometry capabilities of the two-dimensional NEWT transport solver, used within the TRITON depletion sequence of the SCALE code system for lattice physics calculation. With the release of SCALE 5.1 in 2006, NEWT will introduce a new automated grid generation procedure based on simple body specifications, using an input format based on the SCALE Generalized-Geometry Processor. The paper will contrast the discretization techniques against those used in other unstructured grid treatments; illustrate the ease of model development, features, capabilities; and demonstrate the unique adaptability of NEWT for a wide range of fuel configurations.
