Title: SHIELD REGION DATA CONVERTER PROGRAM 20-7

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4842644

Program 20-7, GE-ANPD Program 486, is a digital computer program which prepares input data for "Specialized Reactor-Shield Monte Carlo Program 18-0." Program 18-0 requires extensive and somewhat redundant information about the shield configuration in order to operate efficiently. This same information can be conveyed in a shorter, more concise form, but numerous adjustments and calculations must be performed to put the information into a form acceptable to Program 18-0. This is the purpose of Program 20-7, the output of which is a binary deck of cards to be inserted in the 18-0 binary deck. Further output contains printed listings of the volumes of the regions comprising the shield and comparisons of the coordinates included in the input with the adjusted coordinates used in setting up the data. The program searches for errors in the input, and should any be found, no output will be produced except printed comments about the types of error encountered. The program is written for an IBM 7090 Electronic Data Processing Machine with a memory capacity of 32,768 storage locations. One tape or on-line punch is required. (auth)
