基于蒙特卡罗方法的ADS中子-光子耦合多群截面库的制作与验证

Fabrication and Verification of a Neutron-photon Coupled Multigroup Cross Section Library for ADS Based on Monte Carlo Methods

  • 摘要: 凭借计算效率上的优势,确定论程序被广泛地应用在反应堆辐射屏蔽计算中,但其缺点是计算精度非常依赖于多群截面库的制作精度。而ADS次临界堆因其能谱相比一般的临界堆更硬,涉及的能量范围也更广,所以常用的多群截面库不适用于ADS次临界堆的相关计算。要使用确定论程序开展ADS次临界堆的模拟研究,就需要根据ADS次临界堆的特点重新制作专用的多群截面库。本研究针对ADS次临界堆的能谱特点,使用基于蒙特卡罗方法的截面制作程序IMPC-NP,制作了涵盖0~200 MeV中子能量的ADS次临界堆专用中子-光子耦合多群截面库。为了验证截面库的正确性,将该多群截面库提供给确定论程序DORT对ADS次临界堆进行临界计算和固定源计算。并将计算结果与蒙特卡罗程序IMPC-NP的计算结果进行对比验证。计算结果显示:DORT与IMPC-NP计算所得的keff偏离小于100 pcm,固定源计算得到的中子通量及光子通量均符合较好。故由本研究制作的中子-光子耦合多群截面库在ADS次临界堆的相关计算中具有较高的计算精度。

     

    Abstract: The deterministic code is widely used in the calculation of radiation shielding for reactors by the advantage of its computational efficiency, but its disadvantage is that the computational accuracy is highly dependent on the accuracy of the production of multigroup cross-section libraries. However, due to the fact that the energy spectrum of ADS subcritical reactors is much harder than that of critical reactors and the energy range involved is much wider, the generally used multigroup cross-section libraries are not applicable to the calculations relating to the ADS subcritical reactors. In order to apply the deterministic code to the calculations of ADS subcritical reactors, it is necessary to re-fabricate the dedicated multigroup cross sections according to the characteristics of ADS subcritical reactors. In this study, according to the energy spectrum of the ADS subcritical reactor, a neutron-photon coupled multigroup cross-section library covering neutron energy in the range of 0~200 MeV has been produced using IMPC-NP, which is based on the Monte Carlo method. In order to verify the calculation accuracy of the cross-section library, the multigroup cross-section library is provided to the deterministic code DORT to perform criticality calculation and fixed source calculation for the ADS subcritical reactor. and then the results of the calculations were compared with those of the Monte Carlo code IMPC-NP. The calculation results show that the keff difference between DORT and IMPC-NP is less than 100 pcm, while the neutron flux and photon flux obtained by fixed source are in good agreement. Therefore, the neutron-photon coupled multigroup cross-section library fabricated in this study has a high computational accuracy in the calculation of ADS subcritical reactor.
