A NUCLEAR-THERMAL ITERATION ANALYSIS OF A BOILING CORE WITH THE ABRAC, BRIC AND CNCR CODES

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4729371
A test problem is examined in which the boiling water moderator distribution and power distribution are allowed to interact. The Bettis- developed one-, two-, and threedimensional depletion codes which provide for the moderator variation are used. A comparison of the threedimensional solution and a synthesized three-dimensional solution is made. Conclusions concerning the limitations and possible advantages with each method are drawn. (auth)
