Wims-AECL multicell calculations for burnup heterogeneity
Abstract
The burnup heterogeneity effect in the ACR™-1000 was investigated using the WIMSAECL multicell (MC) calculation capability, which allows the calculation of lattice properties taking into account the effects of neighbour cells. The MC calculations were performed with WIMS-AECL version 3.1.1, based on a 3×3 group of cells with the ACR-1000 fuel at various burnup values. The MC results for the central cell were then compared to those obtained with …
