Help Needed for Modeling Hybrid Reactor Geometry in MCNPX

AI Thread Summary
Ali is seeking assistance with modeling the geometry of a fission-fusion hybrid reactor blanket in MCNPX for his PhD studies on Activation Analysis. He is uncertain about the specific geometry required for the reactor's components, including the blanket, first wall, and shielding block. The discussion emphasizes the need to clarify whether the system is homogeneous or heterogeneous to proceed effectively. Understanding the fuel system and core geometry is crucial for accurate modeling in nuclear systems. Guidance on these aspects is essential for Ali to advance his research.

Hello, i am Ali doing PhD studies i am working on Activation Analysis of Hybrid reactor but i just stat studying this geometry but i am not able to understand this geometry for MCNPX modeling, so i need some help in modelling this geometry in MCNPX.
please guide me in this regard

In what way in the reactor hybrid? Is the system homogeneous or heterogeneous?

For modeling in a conventional nuclear system, one needs the geometry of the fuel system and/or core.
 
yes sir, i need the modeling of fission fusion hybrid reactor blanket, and i am not sure about the exact geometry that how can i model. the hybrid reactor blanket, first wall, shielding block etc.
 

Thread 'MCNP6 BURN Card Issue: Zero Burnup for Material in Fuel Assembly'

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...

Thread 'Beginner Seeking Help: MCNP6 Burnup Example (OECD-NEA Benchmark)'

Hi everyone, I'm a complete beginner with MCNP and trying to learn how to perform burnup calculations. Right now, I'm feeling a bit lost and not sure where to start. I found the OECD-NEA Burnup Credit Calculational Criticality Benchmark (Phase I-B) and was wondering if anyone has worked through this specific benchmark using MCNP6? If so, would you be willing to share your MCNP input file for it? Seeing an actual working example would be incredibly helpful for my learning. I'd be really...
