The RAFFLE V general-purpose Monte Carlo code is an extensively-modified version of the original RAFFLE code developed at INEL. This document describes the RAFFLE V code, emphasizing the modifications made since prior documentation. The major modifications implemented into the RAFFLE V code are: (1) implementation of the processed ENDF-B version V neutron data and an expansion of the energy range to include above-10-MeV reactions important in fusion devices; (2) incorporation of the Combinatorial Geometry subroutines developed by the Mathematical Applications Group Incorporated (MAGI) of White Plains, New York; (3) use of the Probability Table method in the unresolved resonance energy region so that neutron transport and flux shielding can be better represented; (4) the capability to perform gamma-ray transport calculations; (5) the inclusion of flux-at-a-point detectors; (6) the option to obtain microscopic reaction rates and generalized response functions by region or point; and (7) the capability to obtain time-dependent reaction rates and fluxes for fixed-source problems with no fission.
