AI Thread Summary
The issue with MCNPX was related to a missing cross-section file, specifically "bertin," which caused the error message "bad trouble in imcn." This typically indicates an input error, suggesting that the necessary file was not found. The user resolved the problem independently, although the specific steps taken to fix it were not detailed. Missing files are a common source of calculation errors in MCNPX. Ensuring all required files are present is crucial for successful operation.

My MCNPX is not working when I start the calculation. It says "bad trouble in imcn in routine xin cross-section file bertin does not exist."

How did one fix it.

Usually "bad trouble in imcn" indicates an input error

"in routine xin cross-section file bertin does not exist" Does that imply file bertin was missing?
 
Hello everyone, I am currently working on a burnup calculation for a fuel assembly with repeated geometric structures using MCNP6. I have defined two materials (Material 1 and Material 2) which are actually the same material but located in different positions. However, after running the calculation with the BURN card, I am encountering an issue where all burnup information(power fraction(Initial input is 1,but output file is 0), burnup, mass, etc.) for Material 2 is zero, while Material 1...
