RSIC CODE PACKAGE CCC-204




1. NAME AND TITLE

SWANLAKE: Cross Section Sensitivity Analysis Code System for One-Dimensional Discrete Ordinates Calculations.

AUXILIARY ROUTINE

INTRIGUE II-L CALCOMP Plotting Package.

CCC-254/ANISN or other comparable code is needed for input data generation. It is not included in this package.

2. CONTRIBUTOR

Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, Tennessee.

3. CODING LANGUAGE AND COMPUTER

FORTRAN IV and Machine Language; IBM 360/91.

4. NATURE OF PROBLEM SOLVED

SWANLAKE determines the sensitivity of a calculated quantity or result to microscopic cross section data utilized in the calculation.

5. METHOD OF SOLUTION

A particular sensitivity function, which represents an application of earlier perturbation approaches, is determined for the cross sections which were utilized in the discrete ordinates calculation.

6. RESTRICTIONS OR LIMITATIONS

The discrete ordinates calculations to be analyzed by this version of SWANLAKE must be time-dependent and one-dimensional. The sensitivity function only allows for energy downscatter, does not include the effects of fission cross sections, and cannot evaluate the sensitivity of the calculated quantity or response to the response function itself.

7. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME

The infinite air sample problem included in the code package required 2.5 minutes for the ANISN forward calculation, 2.5 minutes for the ANISN adjoint calculation, and 1.8 minutes for the SWANLAKE calculation.

8. COMPUTER HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS

Designed for the IBM 360/91, SWANLAKE is also operable on the IBM 360/75. Maximum core requirement for the sample problems discussed in the code manual is 848K bytes, minimum size is 290 K bytes.

Auxiliary storage requirements, in addition to standard input and output devices, are 2 scratch devices and 3 storage devices. If cross sections are not read from cards, an additional tape or disk will be required, and if the CALCOMP plotting routine included in the package is to be used, another tape unit is required.

9. COMPUTER SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS

A FORTRAN IV compiler is required. A CALCOMP plotting package, INTRIGUE-II (PSR-54), is included in the SWANLAKE package.
