PROPAGATION OF NUCLEAR DATA UNCERTAINTIES FOR PWR CORE ANALYSIS

PROPAGATION OF NUCLEAR DATA UNCERTAINTIES FOR PWR CORE ANALYSIS

An uncertainty propagation methodology based on the Monte Carlo method is applied to PWR nuclear design analysis to assess the impact of nuclear data uncertainties. The importance of the nuclear data uncertainties for 235,238U, 239Pu, and the thermal scattering library for hydrogen in water is analy...
