Three-Velocity Neutron Diffusion Calculations for an Untamped Oralloy Sphere

Description: The results of a series of neutron diffusion calculations relating to an untamped Orally sphere are presented in detail in this report. The three-velocity neutron transport theory was taken as the basis for the analytical work preceding the computations. This particular theory, also known as the transport approximation, is defined in LA-1271 and known to be quite accurate for assemblies primarily involving materials of large atomic weight. For a sphere of uniform density and atomic composition … more
