SUMMARY

The discussion centers on issues encountered with the VISED visual editor when using MCNP (Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport Code). Users reported that VISED automatically rewrites input code, removing critical components such as volume identifications and generating warnings about missing F6 tally volumes. The consensus suggests that placing the input file and VISED in the same MCNP directory may resolve some of these issues, although users still face challenges with the program's handling of volume identifications.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with MCNP (Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport Code)
  • Understanding of VISED visual editor functionalities
  • Basic knowledge of input file structure in MCNP
  • Experience with file management in computational physics
NEXT STEPS
  • Investigate the latest version of MCNP and its compatibility with VISED
  • Learn about proper input file formatting for MCNP
  • Explore troubleshooting techniques for VISED warnings and errors
  • Research best practices for organizing MCNP project files
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for students, researchers, and professionals working with MCNP and VISED, particularly those facing challenges with input file management and visual editing in computational simulations.

Hello for all of you,
I am having a problem with the visual editor of the MCNP.
When I use cards like this cell card:
(( 10 2 -1.04 -2600 imp:p=1 vol=176 ))
in the -visual editor- The VISED automatically rewrite the code after updating it, and eliminate the importance and the volume identifications. I understood what is happened with the importance,since It collected all the importance in one card, and that was good, but my problem was with the "volume identifications", which the program has eliminated all of them without modification or rewriting them again, not just that but gave me a warning that the volumes of F6 tally were not inputted.
Help me please to solve this problem, .
Thanks in advance.Okasha

Hello.
Did you try pick the file input and put it in the mcnp folder?
did try put the all areas?

I had a similar problem. I put VISED in the same folder as mcnp and the input file as well. add in addition to the volumes, also areas and try to put the files in the mcnp folder.

Sorry, i am a student, a beginner in mcnp, I would like to help more.

Hello, I am designing an X-ray irradiator with MCNP simulation. But I am still in confusion, whether my X-ray housing will be a box or a cylinder. If the box (macrobody identifier of MCNP) is required, I am trying to match the dimension as that of the cylinder, i,e, the height will be that of the cylinder height, and the other two dimensions will be that of the radius of the cylinder (surface 52 and 53). Can anybody please help me define the surfaces? Below is my attached text file. Forgot...
