Nuclear fuel cycle boc eoc boec eoec?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the clarification of the terms BOC, EOC, BOEC, and EOEC, commonly used in physics reports. BOC stands for Beginning of Cycle, and EOC refers to End of Cycle, both related to fuel refueling cycles. The meanings of BOEC and EOEC remain unclear without additional context, with suggestions that they may relate to Equilibrium Cycle. Participants emphasize the importance of providing context for better understanding and recommend sharing relevant documents for further clarification. Overall, the conversation highlights the need for clear definitions in technical discussions.

Hello everyone!

I have my first question in physics forum...

When I read some reports I found those terms that can not be understood...

'BOC', 'EOC', 'BOEC', 'EOEC'...

BOC and EOC are used frequently and I know those terms shortly but not exactly...

but I can understand boec and eoec and what is difference between them...

is there somebody can explain those to me and let me know some documents that explain those terms??

thanks

In the future, always include a link to what you are reading so that we can check it out.

I'm not sure the context of your reports, but Begining-Of-Cycle End-Of-Cycle are frequent terms referring to fuel refuel cycles.
 
BOC - Beginning of Cycle
EOC - End of Cycle

I'm not sure about the other two... Do you have some context?
 
context

Yes need context. Maybe ...Equilibrium Cycle?
 

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...
