Benchmark test of JENDL-4.0 with TOF experiments at Osaka Univ./OKTAVIAN

Abstract

, we analyzed TOF experiments with DT neutrons at OKTAVIAN in Osaka University with JENDL-4.0 and MCNP5.14. For comparison, the older version JENDL-3.3 and other recent nuclear data libraries ENDF/B-VII.0 and JEFF-3.1 were also used. As a result, the followings were found out: (1) Si, As, Se, Mo and W : the calculation results with JENDL-4.0 agreed with the measured ones better than those with JENDL-3.3, (2) Cr, Mn and Nb : the calculation results with JENDL-4.0 were partially better and partially worse than those with JENDL-3.3.

Effect of inserted fluoride salts on criticality in the LR-0 reactor

“…The need of integral experiments with fluorinated compounds was emphasized already in 80's (Mori et al, 1985) and current measurements are still showing not exact coincidence of measured and calculated neutron spectrum in fluorinated compound (Kato et al, 2014).…”
