Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL) and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have been jointly working to develop and evaluate preconceptual reactor core configurations for the advanced neutron source. This paper reviews the reactor physics methods used to compute reactor parameters and demonstrates that the laboratories achieve good agreement on these parameters.
