2-D AND 3-D EVALUATION OF NEUTRONIC PROPERTIES ALONG A CANADIAN SCWR FUEL CHANNEL
In this study a 2-D and 3-D evaluation of two groups cell averaged cross sections and integratedflux along a Canadian SCWR fuel channel under normal operating conditions has been realized.With the SERPENT code, two models have been developed: (1) a complete 3-D fuel channel thattakes into account temperature and density profiles along the fuel channel in a single model, (2) aseries of 2-D calculations performed at different position along the fuel channel with distinct setsof temperatures and densities. This preliminary study demonstrates that, from the neutronicpoint of view, the axial coupling along the fuel channel appears to be low compared to the effectsof the reflector and of the boundary conditions.
