Title: Optimum Iteration Schemes for the Improved Quasistatic Method
Authors: Schafer, Steve
Advisor: Dastur, A.
Department: Engineering Physics
Keywords: optimum iteration, schemes, quasistatic, reactors
Publication Date: Dec-1978
Abstract: <p> General theory of nuclear reactor kinetics is discussed, with emphasis on CANDU* reactors. The numerical solution of the group diffusion equations using the IQS+ method is presented. Several important numerical parameters are studied with reference to a one-dimensional slab reactor undergoing a LOC° accident. These parameters are: number of mesh points in the region of solution, frequency of shape calculations, and convergence criteria. * Canada - Deuterium - Uranium + Improved Quasi-Static o Loss of Coolant
