Abstract
Robustness and convergence order comparisons are first carried out using a pure absorber test problem. The cross-section spatial variation is chosen such that an analytical solution can be obtained. Next, we study the spatial effects of isotopic concentration changes during fuel depletion. The depletion problem confirms the accuracy results of the pure-absorber problem.
