Abstract

The 2D/1D transport method is the dominant method for high-fidelity direct whole-core transport calculations, which attracts a lot of attention in recent decades. In the 2D/1D method, some sources of deviation are introduced, including spatial and angular approximation of leakage term and cross-section homogenization for 1D axial calculation. These approximations are analyzed and a material-region-based 2D/1D transport method with anisotropic leakage term, which avoids cross-section homogenization, as well as reduces spatially flat leakage approximation, are developed to improve accuracy at the expense of acceptable memory and efficiency loss. Finally, a BWR assembly case, the C5G7 benchmark and a rod-cluster assembly case are tested to verify the accuracy and performance of the material-region-based 2D/1D method.
