Abstract
This paper presents the results of neutronic calculations using the deterministic and Monte-Carlo methods (the SRAC and MCNP5codes) for the VVER MOX Core Computational Benchmark Specification and the VVER-1000/V392 reactor core. The power distribution and keff value have been calculated for a benchmark problem of VVER core. The results show a good agreement between the SRAC and MCNP5 calculations. Then, neutronic characteristics of VVER-1000/V392 such as power distribution, infinite multiplication factor (k-inf) of the fuel assemblies, effective multiplication factor keff, peaking factor and Doppler coefficient were calculated using the two codes.
