We gain nothing by being with such as ourselves; we encourage each other in mediocrity.
I am always longing to be with men more excellent than myself.--Lamb

Capsule Available on the Web

Two changes were made to the computer code collection during the month.

This package for standardized analysis for licensing evaluation was updated with the addition of electronic documentation files. The final version of the SCALE-4.3 user manual was published by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and converted into PDF format by the SCALE staff. The new PDF files will be included in the SCALE package distributed by RSICC. The new manual contains all tables and figures in electronic format which can be viewed or printed using the Adobe Acrobat Reader, available either on the CD or from the web. Because of the availability of the electronic documentation and because reproduction and mailing charges on this report are so high (approximately $250), RSICC will no longer distribute a hardcopy of the SCALE manual with the package. Current SCALE-4.3 users may obtain the manual on CD-ROM from RSICC for a nominal charge of $75 or may download files from the web.

Several discrepancies in the KENO-VI module were corrected in the RSICC master. See the SCALE Newsletters Number 15 (Jan. 1997) and Number 16 (July 1997) for details. These updates will be posted on the WWW. See the SCALE download page.

The SCALE Web page was updated to point to the new manual. New updates and options are now available from the "Download" page on the SCALE Web site at http://www.cad.ornl.gov/cad_nea/text/scale-home.html. The following changes are available only on the web and will not be available through RSICC until the next SCALE release, which will not be before 1998.

• C5TOC6 utility to convert CSAS/KENO V.a geometry input to CSAS6/KENO-VI (PC version only)
• New SCALE-PC files for Windows NT 4.0
• SCALE Criticality V&V input files and utility programs from NUREG/CR-6483.
• SCALE LWR Benchmark input files from NUREG/CR-6361.
• USLSTATS program to statistically determine Upper Subcritical Limits for a set of validation results (NUREG/CR-6361, Appendix C).

In addition, copies of several validation reports have been posted on the "Benchmarks" Web page. These reports are in PDF format for viewing with Acrobat Reader.

• Guide to Verification and Validation of the SCALE-4 Criticality Safety Software, NUREG/CR-6483, ORNL/TM-12834
• Guide to Verification and Validation of the SCALE-4 Radiation Shielding Software, NUREG/CR-6484, ORNL/TM-13277
• Criticality Benchmark Guide for Light-Water-Reactor Fuel in Transportation and Storage Packages, NUREG/CR-6361, ORNL/TM-13211

The Unix version of SCALE-4.3 runs on IBM RS/6000, DEC, SUN, HP, and SGI workstations. SCALE-PC runs in a DOS window of Windows 95 on 486 and Pentium personal computers with a math coprocessor and at least 8 MB extended memory. 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.

Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, Illinois contributed a new version of the VENTURE-PC reactor analysis code system. The VENTURE program solves the usual neutronics eigenvalue, adjoint, fixed source, and criticality search problems. It treats up to three dimensions, maps power density, and does first order perturbation analysis at the macroscopic cross section level. The BURNER code solves the nuclide chain equations to estimate the nuclide concentrations at the end of an exposure time and also after a shutdown period.

This package is based on the CCC-459/BOLD VENTURE IV code system developed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. In January 1989 the University of Cincinnati contributed the first VENTURE-PC package to RSICC's collection. It is a subset of the mainframe version consisting of the VENTURE and BURNER modules plus several processing modules. VENTURE-PC was distributed as CCC-459 until July 1997 when the new version (with updated source code compatible with newer Fortran-77 compilers, some revisions, and extensions to solve much larger problems) was contributed by Argonne National Laboratory. At this time the CCC-654 package was created for VENTURE-PC systems. The only change to the original system is the package identifier. The principal code modules included in this VENTURE-PC system are:

VENTURE: Multigroup neutronics finite-difference diffusion theory.
BURNER: Exposure calculation for reactor core analysis.

Modules within VENTURE-PC are:

DVENTR: Venture input processor
DCRSPR: Neutron cross section processor
DUTLIN: Control file (CNTRL) input processor
DCMACR: Citation format cross section input processor
CRXSPR: Cross section processor
DENMAN: Fuel repositioning module

The new version runs in a DOS window of Windows 95 on any PC from 386, Pentium, or Pentium Pro computers with at least 8 MB RAM. Lahey Fortran 90 Version 3.5d was used to create the included executable. Two DS/HD (1.44 MB) diskettes written in self-extracting compressed DOS files, which include source, executable, sample input and output files, are required to transmit the package.

PERSONAL ITEMS

In serving a specialized area of scientific endeavor, it seems important that we note significant events or changes in the activities of people concerned with radiation protection, transport, and shielding in the nuclear industry. We, therefore, continue to carry personal items as they are brought to our attention.

Herbert E. (Gene) Hungerford died June 13, 1996, at the University of Alabama Hospital. Hungerford, a member of the American Nuclear Society since 1958, served as chairman of the Shielding and Dosimetry Division. He began teaching physics and mathematics in the United States and the Philippines, where he was a Japanese prisoner of war for 38 months during World War II. He was involved in the development of the shielding for the first breeder reactor in the U.S. while working at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. He retired from Purdue University in 1983 after 20 years as a professor in nuclear engineering.

Amasa Stone Bishop died in Switzerland, May 21, 1997. Bishop was a pioneer in trying to develop clean energy from nuclear fusion. He headed a program in the 1950s on controlled fusion for the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission. In 1970 he became director of environment for the U. N. Economic Commission for Europe.

Albert L. Latter, coauthor with Edward Teller of the book, Our Nuclear Future: Facts, Dangers and Opportunities, died June 8, 1997, at his home in Los Angeles. Considered an expert on nuclear weapons systems, he was a former head of the physics department of Rand Corporation. He founded and was a former president of the defense company R&D Associates.

RSICC attempts to keep its users/contributors advised of conferences, courses, and symposia in the field of radiation protection, transport, and shielding through this section of the newsletter. Should you be involved in the planning/organization of such events, feel free to send your announcements and calls for papers via email to raf@ornl.gov.

X-Change '97

The U.S. Department of Energy and Florida International University invite you to participate in X-Change '97, Dec. 1-5, 1997, in Miami, Florida. X-Change '97 is the largest and most prestigious conclave of international experts to investigate how new operational approaches, new technologies, and other innovations can dramatically reduce the costs of decontaminating and decommissioning (D&D) buildings and equipment at nuclear sites and other locations that handle hazardous and radioactive materials. Managers in government and industry, from the US and across the globe, will discuss their specific spending plans, highlighting projects where operational decisions and new technologies can yield significant improvements in cost and performance.

Reminder!!

The SCALE Training Course has been expanded to two consecutive courses that will separately cover the SCALE criticality codes and the SCALE shielding and source-term codes. The criticality course will focus on KENO V.a and the associated criticality analysis sequences in CSAS. It also will include a brief introduction to KENO-VI. The shielding and source-terms course will emphasize SAS2/ORIGEN-ARP (depletion/source-term generation) and SAS4/MORSE-SGC (3-D Monte Carlo neutron/gamma shielding). It will also cover SAS1/XSDRNPM (1-D neutron/gamma shielding) and QADS/QAD-CGGP (3-D point kernel gamma shielding). Each course will be conducted at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Attendees will gain hands-on experience in problem sessions each afternoon.

The SCALE Criticality Course will be offered October 28 ­ 31 (Tuesday ­ Friday) and the SCALE Shielding and Source Term Course will be offered the following week on November 3 ­ 6 (Monday - Thursday). The courses are scheduled so that users may attend both courses if they choose. The expanded format allows time to more adequately cover each SCALE sequence. It also gives users the opportunity to select the course that best suits their professional needs and interests. This format was offered last fall and was very popular with the attendees. The registration fees are $1,200 for one course or $2,000 for both courses.

The number of registrants for each course is limited to 24. Registrations will be accepted on a first-come basis. Hotel rooms are available at the Garden Plaza Hotel (423-481-2468). Additional information can be obtained by fax (423-576-3513), e-mail (scalehelp@ornl.gov), or on the web at http://www.cad.ornl.gov/cad_nea/text/trcourse.html.
