The neutronics analysis of China Advanced Research Reactor is carried out with the diffusion method by using the whole core module in this paper.Based on the critical calculation of thecore of different periods,the reactivity and the neutron flux and power distribution from the 1
stcycle to the 3
rdcycle are given. The burnup calculation of CARR is done in the indirect way.In the calculation,the burnup distribution of CARR is given and the fraction of the fission productions is obtained.Meanwhile the reactivity of the fission poison is analyzed in this paper.
