5. Sample Input<br />

Several typical examples <strong>for</strong> SRAC will be shown in this chapter. Input data files <strong>for</strong> the<br />

examples are s<strong>to</strong>red in a direc<strong>to</strong>ry: ~SRAC/smpl/shr/.<br />

5.1 Cell Burn-up Calculation (PIJ)<br />

A sample input of a cell burn-up calculation <strong>for</strong> a pin cell model of a PWR (Fig.5.1-1) is shown<br />

below, where cell calculation by PIJ is executed on 107-group structure (fast 62, thermal 45 groups)<br />

with PEACO option <strong>for</strong> effective resonance cross-sections. It is assumed that the fuel pin is exposed<br />

until 31.4GWd/t with the local power his<strong>to</strong>ry shown in Fig. 5.1-2. At each burn-up step, neutron<br />

multiplication fac<strong>to</strong>r and fuel composition are evaluated and two group collapsed constants are<br />

preserved on MACRO file. This calculation is based on the post irradiation analysis <strong>for</strong> the spent fuel<br />

from Japanese PWR (Mihama-3) 30), 31) .<br />
