BURNUP SENSITIVITY CALCULATIONS WITH CBZ FOR LIGHT WATER REACTOR ASSEMBLY PROBLEMS [PDF]
Sensitivities of k∞ and nuclides number densities during nuclear fuel burnup with respect to nuclear data are calculated with a reactor physics code system CBZ. Sensitivity calculations are carried out with the depletion perturbation theory applicable to
