REACTOR VESSEL INTERNALS RADIATION ANALYSES

摘要

The present invention relates to a computational system and method to analyze a radiation field in a light water nuclear reactor. The system and method include a radiation transport module for performing a neutron and gamma transport calculation of a reactor geometry model of the light water nuclear reactor for at least one fuel cycle; a material analysis module for analyzing flux data calculated by the radiation transport module for materials and/or components within the light water nuclear reactor; and a mobile component tracking module for calculating radiation exposure for components within the light water nuclear reactor which have more than one different location during or between the at least one fuel cycle.
