consider it as PWR. about calculations documents I mean Safety Justification reports and Album of neutronics and physics parameters of core.

for the case consider a PWR design

Is there any limitation for an NPP to work in 75% of power for a while eg. 3 or 4 months? If so should be any changes in calculations documents?

There is a technical document in reactor operation which contains neutronic calculations to predict reactor situation in different power lever and effective power days. Operators use this document which usually called Album of Reactor Core Neutronic to operate the reactor based on that. This...

Thorium Fuel Cycle to be or not to be! Hi there, What's your opinion about using Thorium as fuel in current nuclear reactors. is it possible? is it economic? What's the different in terms of physical behaviors in reactor core?

I'm not sure does Nodal method just simplify and accelerate the solution of diffusion equation or it is accurate instead of simple finite difference methods. Is there any idea?

Anybody has Conjugate Gradient code snippet in C or C#?

Thanks Astronuc, LWRWIMis really fast. I think this method is proper to only compare different LP as it became applied in ROSA. this method has not been applied in well known reactor core simulator codes because I think it is not too accurate.

Recently I saw a run of ROSA code and I was really surprised with the speed of core calculation of ROSA code. anyone know about the neutronic models and computation methods they applied in ROSA?

How can I reach to her study?

Thanka Astronuc, I know about Rosa code. I believe the most important part in core pattern optimization is an accurate burnup calculation. With the accurate burnup calculation now this is the in-core fuel management expert who shoud compare the different criteria for some patterns to choose...

Hi There, What's the best core loading pattern optimization method? I believe this is very depended to experts knowledge, I mean the methods such as Genetic Algorithm or Neural Network or Ant Colony are not so useful for such these optimization. Please correct me if I'm wrong on this. Thanks

My WIMS-D5 exe file can be run on Windows 7. So my problem is solved.

I compiled it :smile:

Hi there, I have a source code which I want to compile it on Windows. I've tried the Intel Visual Compiler 11 but I got many errors. here is code: http://www.shahabfar.com/dragon.rar" I wonder if somebody compile it on Windows and let me know my problem. Thank you in advance
