A dedicated neutronics computational scheme is a crucial tool in the preparation and the post-analysis of an irradiation experiment, as it defines the key parameters of the experiment. The complex and very dynamic environment of a Materials Testing Reactor (MTR) core, on the other hand, represents a challenging object for neutronics calculations. Within the framework of the HELIOS experiment conducted at the High Flux Reactor (HFR) in Petten (The Netherlands) in 2009 under the European Project EUROTRANS, a new neutronics scheme has been developed with the objective of finding the optimum balance between accuracy and calculation performance. This scheme is based on the Monte-Carlo technique and employs a two-level approach by separating the problem into overlapping spatial and temporal domains. The underlying physical phenomena are presented, together with elements of validation which gives a further insight into the effects governing the neutron fluxes in the core.

A novel integral approach was applied for the nuclear design analyses performed for the European DEMO Conceptual Study including, for the first time, the automatic generation of analysis models for Monte Carlo calculations from available CAD geometry data by the new McCad conversion tool. Starting from neutronics pre-analyses to define the radial reactor build, a generic neutronics CAD model of the DEMO reactor was constructed serving as basis for the generation of DEMO reactor models employing the HCLL (Helium Cooled Lithium Lead) and HCPB (Helium Cooled Pebble Bed) blankets for the tritium breeding and the power production. The HCLL and HCPB DEMO reactor models were converted to the MCNP geometry representation by the newly developed McCad software tool. The nuclear analyses performed on the basis of MCNP Monte Carlo calculations using the converted models showed that both DEMO reactor variants could satisfy the requirements for a sufficient shielding and tritium breeding performance. As a major outcome of this work it is concluded that the newly established integral approach for neutronics analyses, including the automatic generation of analysis geometry models by McCad, is mature for applications to reactor design analyses and studies.

The paper reports the latest achievements in the neutronics modelling of the electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) launcher installed in the ITER upper port. The computational neutronics analyses have been performed for the extended performance (EP) front steering launcher design, which is accepted by the ITER project as reference. The aim of the paper is to show that the considered launcher design satisfies to the nuclear criteria specified for ITER machine. Results of calculations for the essential nuclear responses such as the neutron fluxes, neutron damages, helium production, and nuclear heating are discussed. The methodology used is focused on Monte Carlo variance reduction techniques for deep-penetration neutron radiation calculations in a very heterogeneous geometry. The Monte Carlo N-particle (MCNP) code was used for the radiation transport calculations with a 3D geometry model of the launcher in ITER machine. The complexity of the launcher geometry makes inevitable to use an automated interface programme McCad for the direct conversion from CAD to MCNP. The results obtained are in compliance with the ITER nuclear regulations. The analyses reveal the necessity of detailed consideration of the most critical launcher components.

This paper is devoted to the radiation shield analyses for the front steering (FS) design of the electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) launcher installed in the ITER upper port. The neutron fluxes, nuclear heat density, helium production, and neutron displacements rate have been calculated by Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) transport code. Three-dimensional MCNP models of the FS ECRH launcher have been produced with high accuracy directly from the CAD geometry models by means of the McCad interface programme. A shielding analysis has been performed to estimate the material composition and optimum length required for the launcher's internal shield. Neutron streaming calculations have been done using the MCNP point detectors method. Variance reductions in nuclear responses of particles track-length estimations were achieved by the optimized weight windows, particles splitting, and Russian roulette techniques. Nuclear design parameters of the FS ECRH launcher have been evaluated by the neutronics analyses with dedicated computational procedures. The analyses show that safety issues and radiation shielding requirements in the FS design are fully satisfied to radiation design limits specified for ITER project.

This paper is devoted to the neutronics analysis of the electron cyclotron wave (ECW) launching system installed in the ITER upper port. The launcher design developed by FOM Rijnhuizen with a twisted arrangement of straight waveguides was selected to facilitate the maintenance of the ECW system by avoiding mitre bends. Two types of ECW launcher designs were considered in this paper: limited and full focusing. Three dimensional MCNP models of the ECW launchers were developed with high accuracy directly from the CAD geometry models by means of an interface programme. A shielding analysis was performed to estimate the length and thickness required for the shield around the waveguides. A two-step method making use of surface sources and point detectors was applied in the neutron streaming calculations in order to estimate the radiation load on the CVD diamond window. The neutron and gamma fluxes, the nuclear heat density, and the helium production were calculated. The results show that the design limits both for the limited and the full focusing ECW models are met.

Radiation shielding analyses have been performed for the ECRH system in the ITER upper port to complete the neutron streaming analysis performed previously. The analyses aimed at assessing and optimising the performance of the radiation shield to prove that the shielding requirements can be met by the proposed design variants. The radiation transport calculations have been performed by means of the Monte Carlo programme MCNP in 3D geometry using the standard ITER neutronics model with ECRH launcher and plug integrated into the upper port. The interface programme MCAM was used to convert the 3D ECRH launcher models available from the CAD-system for use with MCNP-calculations. It was shown that the launcher design with the proposed radiation shield can satisfy the design limits for the radiation loads to both the launcher and the neighbouring components such as the Vacuum Vessel and the TF coils. Radiation dose levels were assessed for reactor shutdown at the rear side of ECRH launcher at locations where personnel access for maintenance may be required. The shutdown dose rate calculations were also performed in 3D geometry by applying the rigorous 2-step (R2S) method and comparing the results to those obtained with the direct 1-step (D1S) method. The R2S method includes activation calculations for the launcher materials by means of the inventory code FISPACT. It was proven that the shutdown dose rates inside the port with straight waveguides will be below the ITER radiation limit of 100 µSv/hr after 10 days decay time.

Activation characteristics have been assessed for a helium cooled solid breeder blanket on the basis of three-dimensional activation calculations for a 2200 MW fusion power demonstration reactor. FISPACT inventory calculations were performed for the beryllium neutron multiplier, the Li4SiO4 breeder ceramics and the Eurofer low activation steel. Neutron flux spectra distributions were provided by a previous MCNP calculation. Detailed spatial distributions have been obtained for the nuclide inventories and related quantities such as activity, decay heat and contact dose rate. These data are available form the authors upon request. On the basis of the calculated contact gamma dose rates, the waste quality was assessed with regard to a possible re-use of the activated materials following the remote or the hands-on handling recycling options.

The helium cooled pebble bed (HCPB) blanket is one of the two European DEMO blanket concepts proposed for testing in international thermonuclear experimental reactor (ITER). The purpose of the tests is to validate the design principles and the operational feasibility for the demonstration blanket system. This includes the basic support functions like tritium extraction, helium cooling and heat transport, and helium purification. In addition, the basic properties and operating characteristics of the system's materials will be validated. Safety, reliability, maintenance and dismantling will be equally addressed. To assess these qualities, the ITER horizontal ports will be used to provide a relevant fusion plasma and the appropriate nuclear environment. At conclusion of the ITER feat EDA phase (July 2001), a revised design of the HCPB test blanket system have been completed to adapt the previous design (for ITER FDR) to the new operational conditions of ITER and to a new strategy for the blanket testing in this reactor. Design description, performance and safety analyses are presented in this paper.

The novel Monte Carlo technique for calculating point detector sensitivities has been applied to two representative beryllium transmission experiments with the objective to investigate the sensitivity of important responses such as the neutron multiplication and to assess the related uncertainties due to the underlying cross-section data uncertainties. As an important result, it has been revealed that the neutron multiplication power of beryllium can be predicted with good accuracy using state-of-the-art nuclear data evaluations. Severe discrepancies do exist for the spectral neutron flux distribution that would transmit into significant uncertainties of the calculated neutron spectra and of the nuclear blanket performance in blanket design calculations. With regard to this, it is suggested to re-analyse the secondary energy and angle distribution data of beryllium by means of Monte Carlo based sensitivity and uncertainty calculations. Related code development work is underway.

In the framework of the European Activation File (EAF) task of the European Fusion Technology Programme, the EAF data relevant to the steel types F82H-mod and MANET-2 were benchmarked experimentally. Samples were activated in an intense neutron field produced in a thick beryllium target by a 19-MeV deuteron beam of the Karlsruhe Isochron-Zyklotron. The irradiated samples were investigated by γ spectrometry. The results were compared with calculations using the FISPACT code, the EAF-4.1 library and the source neutron spectrum as measured by activation foil dosimetry. Calculation-over-experiment ratios between 0.96 and 1.19 are found for the more important medium-halflife radionuclides produced in F82H-mod. Similar values are found for MANET-2.

A co-ordinated international benchmark validation task has been conducted to validate the Fusion Evaluated Nuclear Data Library FENDL-1 through data tests against integral 14-MeV neutron experiments. The main objective of this task was to qualify the FENDL-1 working libraries for fusion applications and to elaborate recommendations for further data improvements. A large variety of existing integral 14 MeV benchmark experiments has been analysed with the FENDL-1 working libraries for continuous energy Monte Carlo and multigroup discrete ordinates calculations. This paper reviews the FENDL-1 benchmark analyses and gives an overview on the major findings, conclusions and recommendations for further data improvements to be included in the forthcoming FENDL-2 data library. 21 refs., 3 tabs.

The evaluated intermediate‐energy activation cross‐section library IEAF‐2001 has been tested against integral experiments with SS‐316 and F82H steels exposed to a white neutron flux spectrum extending up to 55 MeV. By making use of the ALARA inventory code the expected γ‐active product nuclide inventories were calculated and compared with the measured one. It was found that IEAF‐2001 reasonably agrees with experimental data for most of the detected radioisotopes. The reasons for some larger disagreements were found to be the uncertainty of the sample elemental composition, non‐validated neutron activation reaction cross sections, and sequential charge particle reactions.

Computational results of the nuclear analyses for the ECRH launcher integrated into the ITER upper port are presented. The purpose of the analyses was to provide the proof for the launcher design that the nuclear requirements specified in the ITER project can be met. The aim was achieved on the basis of 3D neutronics radiation transport calculations using the Monte Carlo code MCNP. In the course of the analyses an adequate shielding configuration against neutron and gamma radiation was developed keeping the necessary empty space for mm-waves propagation in accordance with the ECRH physics guidelines. Different variants of the shielding configuration for the extended performance front steering launcher (EPL) were compared in terms of nuclear response functions in the critical positions. Neutron damage (dpa), nuclear heating, helium production rate, neutron and gamma fluxes have been calculated under the conditions of ITER operation. It has been shown that the radiation shielding criteria are satisfied and the supposed shutdown dose rates are below the ITER nuclear design limits.

Since the last IAEA conference, the scientific programme of JET has focused on the qualification of the integrated operating scenarios for ITER and on physics issues essential for the consolidation of design choices and the efficient exploitation of ITER. Particular attention has been given to the characterization of the edge plasma, pedestal energy and edge localized modes (ELMs), and their impact on plasma facing components (PFCs). Various ELM mitigation techniques have been assessed for all ITER operating scenarios using active methods such as resonant magnetic field perturbation, rapid variation of the radial field and pellet pacing. In particular, the amplitude and frequency of type I ELMs have been actively controlled over a wide parameter range (q(95) = 3-4.8, beta(N)

Comprehensive neutronic analyses are being per- i formed for different variants of the International Thermo-nuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) electron cyclotron resonance heating upper launcher under development in the European Union making use of modern computation tools such as the McCad code for geometry conversion and the rigorous two-step (R2S) interface for rigorous shutdown dose rate calculation. There were many reasons for the challenges encountered during the shielding analyses: deep-penetrated radiation transport in the complex geometry of the launcher, frequent need to introduce changes in the three-dimensional MCNP model, and necessity to meet a broad range of nuclear sufficiency requirements specified for ITER. The challenges were successfully addressed and resulted in radiation shielding and nuclear safety support for the current version of the launcher design, which should be workable in ITER. During the process of the launcher design development, a comprehensive knowledge of neutronic characteristics has been gained, and computation methods were matured accordingly.

An extensive benchmark exercise has been conducted on ITER with the objective to test and validate different approaches for the use of CAD generated geometry data for Monte Carlo transport calculations with the MCNP code. The exercise encompassed the generation of a dedicated neutronics CATIA model based on available engineering CAD design data, the conversion into MCNP geometry, the verification of the converted models, and a number of calculations to compare the different approaches with regard to the performance and the validity of the results obtained. The paper briefly reviews the different approaches and provides a detailed description of the ITER benchmark effort, its results and conclusions showing that the approaches have reached the maturity level to allow their application to real ITER design analyses. This is considered an essential step forward for neutronics analysis tools to satisfy ITER quality assurance rules.

- Abstract
The European Sodium Fast Reactor Safety Measures Assessment and Research Tools (ESFR-SMART) project offers innovative options for a sodium fast reactor (SFR) to improve its safety. This paper explains the preliminary calculations made on the main options to roughly verify their feasibility. Design propositions and calculations are here provided of the following innovative options: elimination of the safety vessel, innovative decay heat removal systems (DHRS), core catcher, thermal pumps, and secondary loops. In conclusion, all these options seem able to fulfill the key points of new safety rules for Generation-IV reactors. A status of the research and development (R&D) effort necessary to validate these new options is also proposed., (Copyright © 2022 by ASME.)
