RSIC Newsletter
Oak Ridge National Laboratory |
No. 378 May 1996
Five changes were made to the computer code collection during the month. One new code system was packaged and added to the collection, two existing code packages were replaced with newly frozen versions, one code package was corrected, and one code package was enhanced with additional documentation. | |||||||||
|
CCC-200/MCNP4A
OP SYS: UNIX, DOS,
VMS | The documentation for this general purpose Monte Carlo code system
for calculating the time-dependent continuous-energy transport of
neutrons, photons, and/or electrons in three-dimensional geometries was
updated with the addition of a revised Table 1 for Appendix G of the
MCNP4A manual. Users who already have the code package may either
access the updated Appendix G through RSIC's web server under
software or request a copy of this table from RSIC. With this revision,
more information is provided to the user for the continuous-energy and
discrete libraries. MCNP4A is available in compressed UNIX tar format on cartridge tape or on 29, 3.5-in. DS/HD (1.44 MB) diskettes in self-extracting compressed DOS files. Either UNIX or DOS format is available on CD-ROM. In addition to the source files, MCNP4A executables are included for personal computer users. These were created on a PC 486 under DOS 6.0 using the Lahey Fortran F77L-EM/32 Version 5.10 compiler. They also run under Windows95. References: LA-12625 (1993), LA-12212, LA-12827-M and Nucl. Sci. Eng. 116: 269-277 (1994). Fortran 77 and C; UNIX workstations, PC 386, Cray, Vax, Sun, DEC, HP and SGI, mainframe and all computers in general; (C00200/ALLCP/03).
CCC-443/REAC*3 |
OP SYS: many
Westinghouse Hanford Company contributed a newly frozen version of
this code system to calculate transmutation of materials in a nuclear
environment and produce tables of activities and related quantities. This
release, designated REAC*3, is very similar to REAC*2. In addition to
being more easily ported to different computer systems, the main
changes are: | 1) the fixing of a few minor bugs (the most severe being that the time unit "d" was outputted as "h"), 2) the inclusion of the option to use inputted reaction rates in addition to those calculated from flux and cross sections, 3) the inclusion of zones, 4) the production of input to plotting programs, and 5) the inclusion of filenames (including paths) up to 64 characters in length. REAC*3 was developed on a Cray and has been tested on other UNIX systems such as IBM RS/6000, DEC Alpha, Sun, and Silicon Graphics Indy. A Fortran compiler is required on these UNIX systems. A PC-486/DX2 version compiled with the Lahey Fortran 90 Version 1.10h compiler is also available. Users should specify either the UNIX or PC version. Approximately 120 MB of disk space is required and at least 20 MB of memory. The package includes Fortran source, scripts, data, test case input and output, plus an executable for the PC version. The UNIX version is transmitted on either one CD-ROM, DC 6150 (150 MB), 4-mm DAT (8 GB), or 8-mm (2.3) GB cartridge tape in a compressed tar file. The PC version is transmitted on one CD-ROM written in DOS format. Reference WHC-EP-0282 (1989). Fortran 77; Cray, IBM RS/6000, DEC Alpha, Sun, SGI (C00443/MFMWS/00) or PC 486 (C00443/IBMPC/00). CCC-545/SCALE-4.3 |
OP SYS: UNIX, DOS The developers of this modular code system for performing
standardized computer analyses for licensing evaluation have
announced that an error has been discovered with the 44-group
ENDF/B-V cross-section library released with SCALE Version 4.3. The
flux spectrum used to collapse the 44-group library from the 238-group
ENDF/B-V library was not a light water reactor (LWR) fuel pin
spectrum as stated in the report describing the library,
NUREG/CR-6102 (ORNL/TM-12460). This report indicates that the
44-group library released with SCALE-4.3 was to be collapsed using a
flux spectrum from a 17 x 17 pressurized water reactor (PWR) fuel pin
cell calculation performed with XSDRNPM and the 238-group library.
However, the spectrum actually used in the collapse was the spectrum
generated for a special study aluminum/U-235 case with no moderating
material. The two flux spectra are compared in the attached figure. |
Calculations performed at ORNL using approximately 170 LWR fuel critical experiments indicate that the 44-group library released in SCALE-4.3 predicts k-eff about 0.5% higher, on average, than it should when collapsed with the PWR spectrum. Please note that the 44-group validation results presented in NUREG/CR-6102 (ORNL/TM-12460) were generated with a pre-release version of the 44-group library that did not contain this error. In addition, a special issue of the SCALE Newsletter will be published shortly with distribution to all RSIC recipients of SCALE-4.3. The Newsletter will compare the two flux profiles and give results of all critical experiment benchmarks in the 44-group report generated with the two different versions of the 44-group library. The SCALE staff at ORNL apologizes to our users for this error and will do everything possible to correct the error as soon as possible and hopes that the impact upon work performed with this library will be minimal. Please contact scalehelp@ornl.gov if you need special assistance or additional information. The corrected binary version of the library is available on the ORNL anonymous ftp server. Users may access this file via anonymous ftp to infosrv1.ctd.ornl.gov, then cd to pub/rsic/scale, specify binary mode and get the file which is about 11 MB. Switch to ASCII mode and get c545.rme info file which includes details on using it. UNIX users should get scale.rev04.xn44.unix; PC users must get scale.rev04.xn44.dos. Users without ftp access may contact RSIC for a replacement. The UNIX version of SCALE-4.3 runs on IBM RS/6000, DEC, SUN, HP, and SGI workstations. SCALE-PC runs on 486 and Pentium personal computers with a math coprocessor and at least 8 MB extended memory. A 486 or Pentium PC is recommended. Nominal hard disk requirements vary from 60 MB for a minimum installation to install the executables and data files (except the 238-group library) to 350 MB for a complete installation, including space for compiling, linking, and running sample problems.

OP SYS: IBM Oak Ridge National Laboratory contributed a newly frozen version of
this Monte Carlo code system for design and analysis of calorimeter
systems, Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) target systems, etc. Minor
enhancements and corrections were made in this release of CALOR95,
which was designed to assist experimentalists in evaluating and
analyzing different types of calorimeter systems used in many high-energy physics experiments to determine the energy and direction of
incident hadrons, leptons, and photons. This code package contains
HETC95, SPECT95, EGS4, MORSE, and other support programs. | CALOR95 runs on IBM RS/6000 computers and requires a Fortran 77 compiler. It is transmitted on either one CD-ROM, DC 6150 (150 MB), 4-mm DAT (8 GB), or 8-mm (2.3)GB cartridge tape in compressed UNIX tar format. References ORNL/TM-11185 (unpublished report) and SDC-92-00257 (May 1992). Fortran 77; IBM RS/6000 (C00610/IRISC/01). ccc-639/RACC-PULSE |
OP SYS: many The University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin, contributed this
version of the RACC code system for computing radioactivity-related
parameters for fusion reactor systems, which they modified for
pulsed/intermittent activation analysis. CCC-388/RACC was
specifically developed to compute the radioactivity and radioactivity-related parameters (e.g., afterheat, biological hazard potential, etc.) due
to neutron activation within inertial fusion energy and magnetic fusion
energy reactor systems. It can also be utilized to compute the
radioactivity in fission, accelerator or any other neutron generating and
neutron source system. This new version designated RACC-PULSE is
based on CCC-388 and has the capability to model irradiation histories
of varying flux levels having varying pulse widths (on times) and dwell
periods (off times) and varying maintenance periods. This provides the
user with the flexibility of modeling most any complexity of irradiation
history beginning with simple steady state operating systems to
complex multi-flux level pulse/intermittent operating systems. The
solution method implemented is a matrix based method which relies on
the evaluation of the matrix exponential for the pulse period (on period),
dwell period (off time) and post shutdown periods. The code retains the
capability of modeling the standard slab, cylinder, sphere and torus
geometries in multidimensions as well as the point or zero-dimension
geometry for Monte Carlo code interfacing. It provides easy interfacing
with many of the standard multigroup, multidimensional neutron/photon
transport code systems currently employed by the fusion community
and implemented on the UNICOS Cray 2 System at NERSC. An
auxiliary code is provided to interface between the Los Alamos
National Laboratory CCC-547/DANTSYS transport codes for users
running on UNIX workstations. The FIDO formatted style of data input
is retained. | RACC-PULSE runs on the CRAY 2 UNICOS computer and the DEC 5000 and HP 7000 series UNIX workstations. The code is memory intensive, hence workstations containing 32 MB of RAM or more are required for large problems. A Fortran 77 compiler is required. Included in the package are the Fortran source codes, makefiles, test case input and output, which is transmitted on either one CD-ROM or DC 6150 (150 MB), 4-mm DAT (8 GB), or 8-mm (2.3)GB cartridge tape. References: ANL/FPP/TM-122 (May 1979), UWFDM-980 (May 1995), UWFDM-977 (January 1995). Fortran 77; Cray 2, DEC 5000 and HP 7000 series workstations (C00639/ MNYWS/00). |

DLC-181/MCNPDAT6
OP SYS: all | The Los Alamos National Laboratory developers have recommended a
modification to the MCNPDAT6 package, which consists of standard
neutron cross-sections derived from ENDF/B-VI, photon interaction,
and electron data libraries for use with CCC-200/MCNP4A. Two
nuclides were removed from distribution: Am-242 (ground state)
95242.60c and Np-238 93238.60c. These files appear in the ENDF60
library as am95242 and np93238. While the data files accurately reflect
the evaluations, LANL is concerned that the evaluations are too
incomplete to be used for most transport calculations. The
corresponding lines were removed from XSDIR, which was extensively
revised. Users who already have the package may access the updated
XSDIR, README, and Table 1 files from RSIC's web server under
software. Alternately the information can be transmitted on one 1.44
DS/HD 3.5-in. diskette. An Errata for LA-12891 was added to the
document to reflect changes to Table I "The MCNP ENDF60 Library." MCNPDAT6 is distributed on either CD-ROM, DC 6150 (150 MB), 4 mm DAT (8 GB), or 8 mm (2.3 GB) cartridge tapes in UNIX compressed tar format. It is alternately available on either CD-ROM or QIC-80 tape in self-extracting compressed DOS files for PC users. References: LA-12891 (Dec. 1994) and Errata (April 1996).
