Abstract
The k∞ of a sodium cooled fast reactor assembly was calculated for two cases. Quantitative results were obtained and as a consequence of the results we observed that KENO.VI is a factor of 2 or 3 times faster than the MCNP calculations while maintaining comparable accuracy. For this reason it is concluded that KENO.VI can be used in scoping design calculations while MCNP may be reserved for more thorough work.
