Note: FINIX currently does not include models for many burnup related changes in the fuel rods. The fuel behavior solution will be for fresh fuel at all burnups.
Example of coupled burnup calculations using FINIX. The depletion scheme used is explicit Euler's method with stochastic approximation based relaxation applied to the transmutation cross sections and one-group fluxes used for the depletion solution.
The input model is based on the Peach Bottom 2 BWR assembly from the UAM benchmark [1] with the segmented absorber rod replaced by a full length one. For simplicity the Serpent input has been divided into multiple files using the include card.
