In this training course, participants learn how to generate nuclide inventory for several 3D advanced reactor configurations, and how to analyze and post-process these data for use as input in other computational tools.
Participants will learn how to:
- Use SCALE’s TRITON reactor physics sequence to generate core inventory data in the form of ORIGEN nuclide concentration files (f71)
- Perform decay simulations for the determined inventory with ORIGEN
- Interrogate the f71 files with the OBIWAN utility to ensure a thorough understanding of the available cases, the data at each position, and the applied normalizations.
The TRITON portion of this training focuses on the TRITON 3D sequence with the KENO-VI and Shift Monte Carlo neutron transport codes. The data post-processing includes the generation of an easy-to-use inventory interface file (II.JSON) and relevant examples for further post-processing and analysis. This training course provides best practices for generating f71 files and teaches multiple approaches to interrogate and modify results.
Previous experience with TRITON or ORIGEN is required.
