Based on the dynamics of Flibe (2LiF-BeF 2 ), the thermal neutron scattering library (TSL) is generated by NJOY in this paper. We worked on the TSL data through the microscopic analysis. With the increas of temperature and translational weight of liquid Flibe, the inelastic scattering cross section decreases and the average energy of secondary neutron increases. Using TSL of Flibe, the critical calculation for molten salt reactor is also conducted by MCNP. Result shows the k eff is influenced by thermal neutron scattering obviously (about 0.8%). It is suggested that thermal neutron data should be taken into account in molten salt reactor.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
