Determination of the spent fuel decay heat with the VERA core simulator

VERA core simulator capabilities to predict spent fuel decay heat have been explored. The comparison with the Serpent2 and NEWT/TRITON sequence from the SCALE package, performed on the NPP Krško fuel test cases, has enabled independent verification of the successful implementation of the VERA deplet...
