AI Thread Summary
Learning RELAP5 without a teacher is challenging due to the complexity of the software and the lack of formal education in the subject. Access to RELAP5 is limited by costs and export control restrictions, making it difficult for self-learners. Basic knowledge of reactor and core design is essential for effective learning. While guidance from an expert would be beneficial, resources from organizations like the IAEA may provide some foundational information. Overall, self-learning RELAP5 is feasible but requires significant effort and resourcefulness.

Is it possible to learn relap5 without a teacher ?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
for some reason we don't take relap5 at university, 3 only coding we take are c++ MATLAB and MCNP
 
It would help to have guidance of an expert in RELAP5, or at least some basic knowledge of reactor and core design.

There is an expense related to obtaining a copy of RELAP5, as well as restrictions based on export control. One may be able to obtain some information from the IAEA.
 

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...
