Stochastic Implicit Euler burnup scheme
Revision as of 16:02, 26 September 2017 by Ville Valtavirta (talk | contribs)
The Stochastic Implicit Euler (SIE) burnup scheme is an alternative burnup scheme that can be used if the traditional predictor-corrector burnup schemes in Serpent exhibit unstable behavior.
Background
The theoretical background of the SIE scheme is described in [1]
Implementation
Usage
Noteworthy things
- No neutron transport solution is actually calculated using the final concentrations for a certain point.
