Abstract:
Basic conceptions of kinetic parameters,including effective delayed neutron fraction(
βeff),effective neutron generation time(
Λeff) and α eigenvalue,and Monte Carlo calculation methods for these values are systematically introduced in this paper.
βeff is obtained with a "Prompt Method".Perturbation method is chosen to obtain
Λeff.And then α eigenvalue is obtained by two ways,(i) prompt neutron density attenuation,in other words "direct simulation of time evolvement",(ii) indirect method using the result of
kp and neutron generation time.Linear fitting is used to get the critical αc eigenvalues which match well with experimental ones.And uncertainties of kinetic parameters with different methods using Monte Carlo method are also analyzed.
