As part of the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory personal computer (PC)-based reactor physics code system, a portion of the BOLD VENTURE modular code system developed over a period of years at Oak Ridge National Laboratory was recompiled and made operable on IBM or compatible microcomputers. The PC version, labeled VENTURE-PC, utilizes the VENTURE multidimensional, multigroup diffusion module, and exposure module based on the BURNER code, and various control and input modules. The code system is variably dimensioned and has many input options, making it very flexible and powerful for the calculation of diffusion-depletion problems. In addition to being applicable to general reactor physics studies, the code system should prove useful for nuclear engineering student design projects and general graduate student use.
