ANS Announces Initiation of Revision to Standard on Neutron Transport Methods for Nuclear Criticality Safety Calculations

摘要

The American Nuclear Society announced the initiation of a revision to ANSI/ANS-8.24-2007 (R2012), “Validation of Neutron Transport Methods for Nuclear Criticality Safety Calculations.” This standard provides requirements and guidelines for validation-including establishing applicability-of neutron transport calculational methods used in determining critical or subcrit- ical conditions for nuclear criticality safety analyses.
