Description

Nuclear reactor core reload calculations are used to determine safety and operational parameters of a nuclear reactor. Accurately determining these parameters plays an important role in the safe operating of a reactor. The OSCAR-4 code was used to simulate reactor reloads, and the simulation results were compared to experimental plant data as verification of the simulation methods.
