SCALE: a modular code system for performing standardized computer analyses for licensing evaluation. Volume 3. Miscellaneous. [ORIGEN-S and Standard Composition libraries]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5305338
This manual provides documentation for a new, multi-faceted computational system called SCALE (Standardized Computer Analyses for Licensing Evaluation) that has been developed to provide a standard analysis tool for use by the NRC staff and licensees in evaluating nuclear fuel facility and package designs. The SCALE system consists of several automated analytical sequences (control modules) which perform criticality, shielding, and/or heat-transfer calculations with a minimum of user-required input. The computer codes (functional modules) used within each analytical sequence can also be run in a stand-alone fashion or coupled together in a sequence determined by the user. This volume describes the ORIGEN-S data library and the Standard Composition library.
