Abstract
For the reactivity temperature coefficient, our analysis has shown that the tendency of a negative error (overestimation by calculation of the absolute value of the RTC) usually observed when analyzing similar UO2 and MOX LWR lattices is confirmed. However, the level of the calculation error has been reduced significantly by using Monte Carlo modeling associated with the most recent nuclear data libraries.
