Calculating the k -Eigenvalue Sensitivity to Typical Geometric Perturbations with the Adjoint-Weighted Method in the Continuous-Energy Reactor Monte Carlo Code RMC

Abstract: Geometric sensitivity analyses of the k-eigenvalue have many applications in analyses of geometric uncertainty, calculations of differential control rod worth, and searches for critical geometry. The adjoint-weighted first-order geometric sensitivity theory is widely used and has continuously evolved with the Monte Carlo methods. However, the existing adjoint-weighted algorithm can do only uniform isotropic expansions or contractions of surfaces. The adjoint-weighted algorithm also requires computation of adjo… Show more
