3. DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM OR FUNCTION

This package has been designated KENO5A-PC Version 1.2 by the contributors. KENO5A-PC solves the three-dimensional Boltzmann transport equation for neutron multiplying systems. The primary purpose of KENO5A-PC is to determine k-effective. Other calculated quantities include lifetime and generation time, energy-dependent leakages, energy- and region-dependent absorptions, fissions, fluxes, and fission densities.

[ top ]

4. METHOD OF SOLUTION: KENO5-PC employs the Monte Carlo technique.

[ top ]

5. RESTRICTIONS ON THE COMPLEXITY OF THE PROBLEM

The PC version has the same restrictions as the mainframe version of KENO5.

6. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME

On IBM PC-AT class equipment, run times range from about an hour for simple unmoderated systems to 10-12 hours for complex moderated systems. These times are shortened by a factor of approximately 8 on IBM PS/2-class systems using extended memory.

CCC-0548/02

on a PC 396 running at 20 MHz under the MS/DOS4.01 operating system and a math coprocessor, the following times were noted:
1. JEZEBEL.KVA - standard unreflected critical sphere of plutonium       - took 2.4 minutes.
  2. CRIT132 - critical array of low enriched, water-moderated fuel
     rods - took 84.9 minutes.

11. MACHINE REQUIREMENTS

The minimum hardware configuration is an IBM XT or compatible with a math coprocessor, 1 MB RAM, and a 20-Mb fixed disk. KENO5A-PC has successfully executed on all IBM PC and PS/2 equipment, a COMPAQ SLT 286, and an Alliant FX8. It has no intentional machine dependencies other than the time and date subroutines.

CCC-0548/02

This version requires a PC/80386 (with a 80387 co- processor) or PC 80486. At least 4 MB of extended memory is needed.
