GRACE I-AN IBM 704-709 PROGRAM DESIGNED FOR COMPUTING GAMMA-RAY ATTENUATION AND HEATING IN REACTOR SHIELDS

OSTI ID:4236331

The GRACE I code computes the gamma flux distribution in a multi-region finite or semi-infinite slab shield. The results are converted to either dose rates or heat-generation rates as desired. The code was programmed in the Fortran automatic coding system for either an IBM-704 with an 8000-word storage capacity or for an IBM-709. As many as 30 regions and 20 gamma energy groups may be included in a single calculation. (W.D.M.)
