NEACRP intercomparison of codes for the shielding assessment of transport packages. Solution for the TN12 benchmark problem

Abstract

The Reactor Physics Committee of the Nuclear Energy Agency has set up a series of benchmark calculations to compare the performance of the various codes used in shielding calculations for fuel transport flasks. For one benchmark the calculations are to be compared with dose-rates measured outside a French TN12 flask loaded with 12 irradiated fuel elements from a PWR. This report describes the calculations carried out for this flask using the FISPIN and MCBEND codes, and compares the results with the measured values. (author).
