Development of a hybrid deterministic/stochastic method for 1D nuclear reactor kinetics

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

A new method has been implemented for solving the time-dependent neutron transport equation efficiently and accurately. This is accomplished by coupling the hybrid stochastic-deterministic steady-state coarse-mesh radiation transport (COMET) method [1,2] with the new predictor-corrector quasi-static method (PCQM) developed at Politecnico di Torino [3]. In this paper, the coupled method is implemented and tested in 1D slab geometry.
