Book Monte Carlo and Discrete Ordinates Calculations of 14 MeV Neutrons Streaming Through a Stainless Steel Duct

Download or read book Monte Carlo and Discrete Ordinates Calculations of 14 MeV Neutrons Streaming Through a Stainless Steel Duct written by and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Measured and calculated neutron and gamma-ray energy spectra from approx. 14 MeV neutrons streaming through a stainless-steel duct having a length-to-diameter ratio of 4.6 are compared. The 1.45-m-long duct is imbedded in a concrete block. The spectra were measured with an NE-213 liquid scintillator as a function of detector location relative to the mouth of the duct. The calculated data were obtained using the Monte Carlo code MCNP and the discrete ordinates code DOT 4.3. The calculations were performed using a two-dimensional cylindrical model of the experiment with symmetry about the duct axis. The measured and calculated neutron and gamma-ray spectra are compared at two distances from the mouth of the duct and at detector locations on and off the duct axis. The neutron spectra calculated with MCNP agree with the measured data within approx. 5 to 50% at all detector locations. The data calculated using the discrete ordinates method are in good agreement with the experiment for the cases where the detector is on axis but are in poor agreement at the off axis detector locations. The gamma-ray spectra calculated with both radiation transport methods are in good agreement (approx. 5 to 25% depending on photon energy) with the measured spectra.

Download or read book Monte Carlo and Discrete Ordinates Calculations for 14 MeV Neutrons Streaming Through a Stainless Steel Duct written by and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Measured and calculated neutron energy spectra from 14-MeV neutrons streaming through stainless steel ducts having length-to-diameter raios of 14.8 and 38.2 are compared in this paper. The measured data were obtained using an NE-213 liquid scintillator and the calculated data were obtained using the Monte Carlo code MCNP and the discrete ordinates code DOT 4.3. For both duct geometries, the spectra calculated using the MCNP code are in reasonable agreement with the measured data ranging from a few percent to a factor of two, depending on the detector location and duct. The spectra calculated using the DOT code are in fair agreement (30%) for cases where the detector is on the duct axis, but are in poor agreement, up to an order of magnitude, when the detector is off axis. 6 refs., 7 figs., 4 tabs.

Book Monte Carlo and Discrete Ordinates Calculations of 14 MeV Neutrons Streaming Through a Stainless steel Duct L

Download or read book Monte Carlo and Discrete Ordinates Calculations of 14 MeV Neutrons Streaming Through a Stainless steel Duct L written by and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integral experiments are being carried out at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory to measure neutron and gamma-ray energy spectra from approx. 14 MeV neutrons streaming through cylindrical ducts imbedded in concrete. These data are being used to validate radiation transport code and nuclear data libraries that are being used to calculate nuclear streaming through the penetrations that are found in fusion reactor blanket and shield assemblies. In this paper, measured and calculated neutron and gamma-ray energy spectra from approx. 14 MeV neutrons streaming through a stainless-steel duct having a length-to-dia ratio of 4.6 are compared as a function of detector location relative to the mouth of the duct. The length of the duct is 1.45 m.
