Generalization of the ARMP Depletion Capabiity: Interfacing of the Stand Alone EPRI-CINDER with EPRI-CELL. Final Report

摘要

An automated interface between EPRI-CELL, a reactor cell analysis code, and EPRI-CINDER, a point depletion and fission-product code, has been generated for use in the Advanced Recycle Methodology Program (ARMP) system. This enables an efficient sequential operation of the two codes without direct handling of intermediate CELL output that is used to modify the CINDER input at each depletion time step. This alternative to the existing CELL internal depletion capability provides means for new and better application of these codes to wider areas of nuclear problems. The stand-alone EPRI-CINDER code has also been provided with new capabilities and has been modified to accept a simpler optional input structure. (ERA citation 04:049869)
