Abstract
A discrete ordinates transport code ENSEMBLE in (X, Y, Z) geometry has been developed for the purpose of shielding calculations in three-dimensional geometry. The code has some superior features, compared with THREETRAN which is the only code of the same kind so far developed. That is, the code can treat higher order anisotropic scattering and employs a coarse mesh rebalancing method. Moreover it has a negative flux fix-up routine using a variable weight diamond difference equation scheme and has a ray-effect fix-up option using a fictitious source based on SN→PN-1 conversion technique. Formulations for these advanced features in three-dimensional space have been derived. As the demonstration of the capabilities of the code, several numerical analyses and an analysis of an annular duct streaming experiment in JRR-4 at Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute, have been performed. As a result of these analyses, confirmation has been obtained for the prospect of applicability of ENSEMBLE to practical shieldin...
