Bias Determination for DOE Nuclear Fuels

The purpose of this calculation is to establish the relative change in the effective neutron multiplication factor (keff) due to the use of MCNP unique identifiers (ZAIDs) in Nuclear Criticality Calculations for Canister-Based Facilities - DOE SNF (Reference 2.2.1, Attachment 3, MCNP inputs.zip) that are different to the ZAIDs used in the Analysis of Critical Benchmark Experiments and Critical Limit Calculation for DOE SNF (Reference 2.2.5, Table 5-3).

Bias Determination for DOE Nuclear Fuels

The purpose of this calculation is to establish the relative change in the effective neutron multiplication factor (k-eff) due to the use of MCNP unique identifiers used in the paper, Nuclear Criticality Calculations for Canister-Based Facilities - DOE SNF, that are different from the MCNP unique identifiers used in the paper, Analysis of Critical Benchmark Experiments and Critical Limit Calculation for DOE SNF.
