1. NAME AND TITLE OF DATA LIBRARY

KEDAK3: Evaluated Neutron Nuclear Data for Reactor Physics Calculations.

2. NAME AND TITLE OF DATA RETRIEVAL PROGRAMS

KEMA: Program for the Management of the KEDAK Library.

3. CONTRIBUTOR

Kernsforshungszentrum, Karlsruhe, Germany.

4. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND AND INFORMATION

The data library is maintained and updated at Karlsruhe.

5. APPLICATION OF THE DATA

The data file KEDAK contains the evaluated neutron nuclear data for a number of materials important for the reactor physics, specific physical experiments, burn up calculations, shielding and other applications.

6. SOURCE AND SCOPE OF DATA

Each data type and each material is characterized by a numerical and alphanumerical name. Numeric names are used for storage purposes.

7. DISCUSSION OF THE DATA RETRIEVAL PROGRAM

KEMA manages the KEDAK data. One can convert the card image format into unformatted mode for easier use by codes like PSR-265/MIGROS3. KEMA can also do deletions or insertions.

8. DATA FORMAT AND COMPUTER

Card images; IBM 370. (D00141/I0370/00).

9. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME

The sample problem took about two minutes of CPU time on the IBM 3033 under the MVS operating system when tested at RSIC using the Fortran H-Extended Enhanced (FORTQ) Compiler.

11. CONTENTS OF LIBRARY

Included are the referenced document and 5 DS/HD 3.5-in. (1.44 MB) diskettes written in self-extracting compressed DOS files which contain the data written. Total number of records is 252,984.

12. DATE OF ABSTRACT

September 1988.
