ABS>ANP 704 digital program No. 381, which was used to perform the bulk of the nuclear calculations for the D103A fuel element design is described. This program handles the iterative fine power fiattening of concentric ring fuel elements of the D103A type. Input consists of gross element geometry, basic nuclear data and various mechanical parameters. Output consists of the fine geometry of the element, the fine power profile, and partially processed thermodynamic data. The thermodynamic data are also punched in a form suitable for use as input to ANP program No. 23, Flow Through Heated Annuli. (auth)
