ENHANCING THE PERFORMANCE OF FISSION SOURCE CONVERGENCE WITH FUNCTIONAL EXPANSION TALLIES IN SERPENT 2 MONTE CARLO CODE

This paper presents an upgrade to the built-in response matrix based solver implemented in Serpent 2 Monte Carlo code aiming to improve the fission source convergence when obtaining the forward solution to the k-eigenvalue criticality source problems. The functional expansion tallies are introduced...
