Evaluation of PWR pressure vessel fast neutron fluence benchmarks from NUREG/CR-6115 with ares transport code

An accurate evaluation of PWR pressure vessel fast neutron fluence is essential to ensure pressure vessel integrity over the design lifetime. The discrete ordinates method is one of the main methods to treat such problems. In this paper, evaluations have been performed for three PWR benchma...
