Release Notes for NECP-X
0.8.3
This is the release version of NECP-X providing N/TH and depletion functionality of high-fidelity neutronics calculation.
The features of this version:
· One-step whole core calculations without homogenization;
· Detailed geometry description: sub-pin level, CSG pin, baffle, barrel, pad, vessel;
· 69-group structure with extended resonance energy range;
· Global-Local resonance method;
· 2D/1D transport method, supports reactangular and hexagonal modular;
· Large-scale parallel ability;
· Two execution mode (plot and neutronics calculation);
· Steady state calculations;
· N/TH coupling calculations;
· Depletion and activition calculations;
· Cycle simulation.
Note for this release:
· Need to define ‘water’ in the material block when adding baffle, barrel, pad and vessel;
· This release version doesn't support the plate-fuel calculation, which is developed in development version.
· This release version only supports cylinder-pin for assembly with grid for assembly with grid and rectangular-pin for assembly with grid is developed in development version.
Note for trial version:
· Plot in ppm mode is not open;
· CSG modeling function is not open;
· Hexagonal modeling function is not open;
· Transient calculation function is not open;
· API is not open.
