Hybrid parallel strategies for the neutron transport code PANDAS-MOC

open access: yesFrontiers in Nuclear Engineering, 2022
PANDAS-MOC (Purdue Advanced Neutronics Design and Analysis System with Methods of Characteristics) is being developed to find high fidelity 3D solutions for steady state and transient neutron transport analysis. However, solving such transport problems in a large reactor core could be extremely computationally intensive and memory demanding.

Status of the SCONE Monte Carlo neutron transport code

open access: yesAnnals of Nuclear Energy
SCONE is a Monte Carlo neutron transport code written at the University of Cambridge. It is the first high-performance Monte Carlo code written in the United Kingdom since MONK and is Britain’s only open-source neutron transport code. As well as having performance and accuracy representative of modern Monte Carlo codes, SCONE is distinguished by its ...

Parallel schedules for MOC sweep in the neutron transport code PANDAS-MOC

open access: yesFrontiers in Nuclear Engineering, 2022
Method of characteristics (MOC) is a commonly applied technique for solving the Boltzmann form of the neutron transport equation. In the PANDAS-MOC neutron transport code, MOC is used to determine the 2D radial solution. However, in the whole-code OpenMP threading hybrid model (WCP) of PANDAS-MOC, it is found that when using the classic parallelism ...

Using software based on the Monte-Carlo method for receiving the few-group homogenized macroscopic interaction cross-section

open access: yesTrudy Odesskogo Politehničeskogo Universiteta, 2017
The constant preparation issues are important for performing the few-group analysis for different states of the reactor core. Besides, the constant preparation method influences the further calculations accuracy and quality.
