Comparison of methods for calculating the neutronic characteristics of a VVER-1200 fuel assembly
This article presents the results of neutronic calculations of a VVER-1200 fuel assembly carried out using the multi-purpose three-dimensional continuous-energy Monte Carlo particle Denim transport code Serpent 2.The study compares neutronic characteristics during the fuel burnup process (1) with and (2) without fuel cooling.In the first option, th
