    Mcnp5 Radiation
AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the issue of obtaining zero values in the radiation output of MCNP5 simulations. Users are puzzled by the consistent zero readings in the radiation column, despite other parameters showing valid data. Potential causes for this issue include incorrect input settings, lack of radiation sources, or misconfigured geometry in the simulation. Suggestions for troubleshooting involve reviewing the simulation setup and ensuring that the radiation transport is correctly defined. The conversation emphasizes the importance of verifying input parameters to resolve the zero output issue effectively.

so you can't. Only MCNPX or MCNP6 can transport protons
I wrote mcnpx instead of mcnp5, something like this happened

I wish I could solve this gridconv problem too, it would be great for me

I think that has been solved. Before you were putting your input file into gridconv, not the mdata file produced by mcnpx. It is fine to put the mdata file in the same directory as gridconv.exe but if the exe is in your bin directory with mcnpx.exe it should work. You must be in the directory where the mdata file is before you run gridconv.

Edit,
At the point gridconv asks 'Do you wish to continue?' you can hit enter for 'no' because at that point the text file has been created. Then you can hit return again to exit the program.

yes the app worked correctly.
