Budapest Training Reactor Serpent2 model

  • Geometry based on publicly available info. See links in the input deck. Main inspiration and further reading on the reactor at reak.bme.hu
  • Some approximations were needed. See comments

Possible ideas for use in education

  • Try to build a simplified model with students (ie. only normal assemblies)
  • Reactivity reserve, control rod worth and curves. Coefficients.
  • Study the impact of S(a,b) tables
  • Tally spectrum, heat deposition (use edepmode 3)
  • Place neutron source and perform subcritical studies (observe neutron detector/leakage signal vs k-eff). Remove reflectors. Remove fuel. Step with control rod.
  • Calculate dose rates. Use WW.

The deck is not totally elegant, nevertheless if you manage to spot a mistake, or have better data on certain things, let me know.
