Abstract

This paper describes the current status of GALILEE-1 that is the new verification and processing system for evaluated data, developed at CEA. It consists of various components respectively dedicated to read/write the evaluated data whatever the format is, to diagnose inconsistencies in the evaluated data and to provide continuous-energy and multigroup data as well as probability tables for transport and depletion codes. All these components are written in C++ language and share the same objects. Cross-comparisons with other processing systems (NJOY, CALENDF or PREPRO) are systematically carried out at each step in order to fully master possible discrepancies. Some results of such comparisons are provided.

Highlights

  • GALILE E-1 system, written in C++ language is the new verification and processing system for evaluated data

  • GALILE E-1 system originality lays in its two complementary running ways: an integrated one (Fig. 1) and an open one for providing application codes with processing tools (Doppler on the fly for instance)

  • “GBASE interaction data” contain, the list of products that can be created by the interaction, all the information given by an evaluation (JEFF-3.2, ENDF/B-VII.1, JENDL-4.0, . . . ) but organized in such a way that processing is easier, and processed data (CE data, Probability Tables, MG data, . . . )

Summary

Introduction

GALILE E-1 system, written in C++ language is the new verification and processing system for evaluated data. It is part of a CEA global development program dedicated to fine modelling of nuclear systems. GALVANE (GALilee Verification of the Accuracy of Nuclear Evaluations): dedicated to verify nuclear evaluations that are GALILE E-1 input data. GTREND (GALilee TReatment of Evaluated Nuclear Data): dedicated to provide continuous-energy (CE) and multigroup (MG) data as well as probability tables. Additional components, such as interface modules creating consistent libraries for application codes or a convivial and automatic chain for creating these libraries, will be developed later. GALILE E-1 system originality lays in its two complementary running ways: an integrated one (Fig. 1) and an open one for providing application codes with processing tools (Doppler on the fly for instance)
