A discrete ordinates finite-element method for solving the two-dimensional first-order neutron transport equation is derived using the least-squares variation. It avoids the singularity in void regions of the method derived from the second-order equation which contains the inversion of the cross-section. Different from using the standard Galerkin variation to the first-order equation, the least-squares variation results in a symmetric matrix, which can be solved easily and effectively. To eliminate the discontinuity of the angular flux on the vacuum boundary in the spherical harmonics method, the angle variable is discretized by the discrete ordinates method. A two-dimensional transport simulation code is developed and applied to some benchmark problems with unstructured geometry. The numerical results verified the validity of this method. 相似文献

Analytic solutions of the multigroup discrete ordinates transport equation with linearly anisotropic scattering and arbitrarily distributed source for multi-layered slab problems are obtained by using the infinite medium Green's function (IMGF) and Placzek's lemma. In this approach, the infinite medium Green's function is derived analytically by using the spectral analysis for the multigroup discrete ordinates transport equation and its transposed equation, and this infinite medium solution is related to the finite medium solution by Placzek's lemma. The resulting equation leads to an exact relation that represents the outgoing angular fluxes in terms of the incoming angular fluxes and the interior inhomogeneous source for each slab. For heterogeneous problems having multi-layered slabs, the slabs are coupled through the interface angular fluxes. Since all derivations are performed analytically, the method gives exact solution with no truncation error. After the interface angular fluxes are calculated by using an iterative method, the continuous spatial distribution of the angular flux (i.e. analytic solution) in each slab is given straightforwardly in terms of the IMGF and the boundary angular fluxes. 相似文献

A highly accurate S4 eigenfunction-based nodal method has been developed to solve multi-group discrete ordinate neutral particle transport problems with a linearly anisotropic scattering in slab geometry. The new method solves the even-parity form of discrete ordinates transport equation with an arbitrary SN order angular quadrature using two sub-cell balance equations and the S4 eigenfunctions of within-group transport equation. The four eigenfunctions from S4 approximation have been chosen as basis functions for the spatial expansion of the angular flux in each mesh. The constant and cubic polynomial approximations are adopted for the scattering source terms from other energy groups and fission source. A nodal method using the conventional polynomial expansion and the sub-cell balances was also developed to be used for demonstrating the high accuracy of the new methods. Using the new methods, a multi-group eigenvalue problem has been solved as well as fixed source problems. The numerical test results of one-group problem show that the new method has third-order accuracy as mesh size is finely refined and it has much higher accuracies for large meshes than the diamond differencing method and the nodal method using sub-cell balances and polynomial expansion of angular flux. For multi-group problems including eigenvalue problem, it was demonstrated that the new method using the cubic polynomial approximation of the sources could produce very accurate solutions even with large mesh sizes. 相似文献

An improved coarse-mesh discrete ordinates method has been developed for three-dimensional hexagonal transport calculations of high-conversion light water reactors and fast reactors. This method employs a new weighted diamond difference approximation which is obtained by using the neutron balance equations in divided submeshes. The weight is a function of neutron direction and scaler flux, and this method can be easily incorporated into conventional discrete ordinates transport codes. The present method was applied to hexagonal fuel assembly calculations of high-conversion reactor and fast reactor core calculations, and the results were compared with those of Monte- Carlo calculations. The values of kefi and power distributions agreed with each other within 0.5 and 3%, respectively, verifying accuracy of the present improved coarse-mesh discrete ordinates transport calculation method. 相似文献

Two finite-moments techniques to solve the time-dependent discrete ordinates transport equation are discussed. One of the techniques is implicit in time with a finite-moments expansion of the flux in space, and the other uses finite-moments expansions in both time and space. The performance of these algorithms is compared to that of conventional time-dependent discrete ordinates methods. The accuracy of the basic implicit time differencing and the effect of angular discretization are briefly discussed. Finite-moments techniques can offer a significant advantage over conventional methods in certain time-dependent transport problems, especially in multidimensional geometry. 相似文献

A linear multiple balance method (LMB) is developed to provide more accurate and positive solutions for the discrete ordinates neutron transport equations. In this multiple balance approach, one mesh cell is divided into two subcells with quadratic approximation for the angular flux distribution. Four multiple balance equations are used to relate center angular flux with average angular flux by Simpson's rule. From the analysis of spatial truncation error, the accuracy of the linear multiple balance scheme is O(Δ4) whereas that of diamond differencing is O(Δ2). The positivity of the method is also stronger than that of diamond differencing. To accelerate the linear multiple balance method, we also describe an additive angular dependent rebalance factor scheme which combines a modified boundary projection acceleration scheme and the angular dependent rebalance factor acceleration scheme. It is demonstrated, via Fourier analysis of a simple model problem as well as numerical calculations, that the additive angular dependent rebalance factor acceleration scheme is unconditionally stable with spectral radius <0.2069 c (c being the scattering ratio). The numerical results tested so far on slab-geometry discrete ordinates transport problems show that the solution method of linear multiple balance with additive angular rebalance acceleration is effective and sufficiently efficient. 相似文献

A three-dimensional transport code “TRITAC” for solving eigenvalue problems in reactor cores has been developed on the basis of discrete ordinates method with the diffusion synthetic acceleration technique. The Larsen procedure for the diffusion synthetic acceleration method has been extended to three-dimensional geometry. With the procedure a spatially differenced diffusion synthetic equation has been derived and implemented in the TRITAC code. In the X-Y geometry the code yielded the same results as the TWOTRAN-II code. Three-dimensional eigenvalue problems for thermal and fast reactors have been solved and the computational time has been compared with that required for the three-dimensional discrete ordinates calculation with the rebalance acceleration technique. 相似文献

The group condensation of the transport equation is studied in this paper so that the computational burden can be reduced. The group condensation procedure leads to equivalent total cross section that becomes angle dependent. The difficulty of angle dependency has been traditionally treated by consistent P or extended transport approximation in multigroup transport computation. However, in this study, the angle dependency of the total cross section is applied directly to the discrete ordinates equation, and the solution procedure is validated numerically on a test problem. In addition, an angle-collapsing concept is proposed for the purpose of further simplifying the group condensed problem. A local/global iteration framework is also described, in which fine-group discrete ordinates calculation is used in local problems while few-group angle collapsed transport calculation is used in the global problem, with excellent test results in the keff and flux estimation. 相似文献

The nodal discrete ordinates (SN) transport calculation code for three-dimensional hexagonal geometry NSHEX treats intranode flux distribution using a polynomial series and considers the angular dependence of flux by the SN method. For the improvement of calculation accuracy of NSHEX for practical use to large-size fast reactor plants, the maximum order of the polynomial series is extended from two to six. In order to check the effect of the polynomial expansion order, NSHEX is applied to the intermediate-size fast power reactor core “Monju” and the large-size one “Super Phenix,” including various control rod insertion conditions. From the application, it is found that extension of the polynomial expansion order is effective especially for the large-size core “Super Phenix” under the control-rod-inserted condition. 相似文献

In neutron and photon transport problems, anisotropic scattering is of great importance for the particle flux, especially when the angular flux has a strong forward peak in shielding analyses. The conventional Legendre expansion is widely used in discrete ordinates transport codes because of algebraic simplifications with spherical harmonics for the scattering source. However, negative cross sections caused by the finitely truncated expansion may give rise to a negative source and flux. A simple method is adopted, based on integrating functions of scattering moments, to evaluate anisotropy and convergence of expanded functions. A series of problems were designed with angular fluxes of different anisotropy, and numerical simulations were performed using the ARES transport code to study different treatments and algorithms for scattering. Results show that the diagonal transport approximation is more stable and obtains a similar accuracy with the extended approximation. A conservative fixup for the negative source could ensure particle balance and improve computational accuracy significantly for photon transport. The effect of anisotropic scattering is problem-dependent, and no distinct differences among various methods are observed for volume source problems with a continuous energy source. For beam source problems, flux results are sensitive to negative scattering functions, and strictly nonnegative cross sections need to be implemented. 相似文献

Abstract Neutron spectra in a cylindrical straight duct and in bent ducts with angles of 30°, 60° and 90° have been measured by the multiple foil activation and thermoluminescence dosimetry methods. Two-dimensional discrete ordinates and three-dimensional Monte Carlo calculations are executed, and the results are compared with the measurements. The flow rate at the duct entrance calculated by the DOT3.5 code is underestimated by approximately 30%, due to a conversion of the core and reflector geometry from XY to RZ geometry. The fast neutron flux in the ducts is underestimated by 20% by the MORSE-SGC/S code due to a too coarse angular mesh of the source, which does not properly represent the actual angular distribution of the fast flux, which is highly peaked forwardly into the ducts. The thermal neutron flux was overestimated by the Monte Carlo calculation. A method is proposed to calculate the angular distribution of the flow rate at the duct entrance and to calculate the source strength and the angular distribution of the flow rate at the entrance of the second leg of the duct. The results are compared with those of the transport calculations. Generally, the agreement is quite satisfactory. 相似文献

A method is presented for solving neutron transport problems in slab geometry with the application of discrete ordinates numerical integration to the Boltzmann transport equation. Neutron spectra for water, iron and carbon layers are calculated and compared with experimental data. Good agreement is obtained between computed and measured values for both angular distributions and the energy spectra of neutrons. The calculated neutron spectra in an iron-water layer are also presented as an example of solutions derivable for neutron transport problems in multi-layered shield. 相似文献

When solving transport equation by the discrete ordinates method, the solution procedure must accord with the moving direction of particle due to the stability restriction. Thus it results in a strong correlation among these unknown variables, and the intrinsic serial nature of the corresponding algorithmic procedure becomes the bottleneck for transport equation calculations on large-scale parallel computers. The conventional parallel sweep method has restrictive but in no means high degree of parallelism for two and three spatial dimensional problems, and it has no spatial parallel degree for one-dimensional problems. In this paper, a spatial domain decomposition method is adopted in the computational domain, and different interface prediction and correction methods are introduced to solve the 1-D spherical geometric transport equation. It is natural to generalize to multidimension problems. In order to avoid producing negative flux, we employ the exponential method for variable discretization. The numerical experiments by using MPI show that our parallel method with explicit prediction and implicit correction has good precision, parallelism and simplicity. 相似文献
