Validation of the SHNC time-dependent transport code based on the spherical harmonics method for complex nuclear fuel assemblies

Abstract: The diffusion approximation to the time-dependent Boltzmann transport equation gives accurate results for traditional nuclear reactor designs, but new reactor designs and new fuel elements require neutron transport methods. We develop a numerical approximation to the time-dependent transport equation coupled to delayed neutron precursors based on the spherical harmonics P L equations, for odd L, and on the Backward Euler finite difference discretization of time. The resulting scheme can be written as a station… Show more
