Research on Neutron Noise Analysis Stochastic Simulation Method for α Calculation

  • 摘要: 瞬发中子常数α本征值对核装置的设计和安全分析具有重要意义。为解决α本征值蒙特卡罗计算时存在的问题,提高计算精度,本文结合随机模拟特点,借鉴反应堆噪声分析实验测量的原理,提出了基于噪声分析模拟的α本征值随机计算方法。首先,采用基于广义半马尔科夫过程的离散事件蒙特卡罗模拟方法来模拟中子随机场的演化过程,得到了探测器处中子噪声序列。其次,利用参数自适应计算的中子噪声分析Rossi α方法、方差-平均值比法、零概率法以及互相关分析法,对中子噪声序列分析,得到了α值。几种方法计算得到的α值相近,最大相对偏差为7.9%,表明求解α本征值的中子噪声分析随机模拟方法是可行的。

     

    Abstract: The prompt decay constant α has significant application on the physical design and safety analysis in nuclear facilities. To overcome the difficulty of α value calculation with Monte-Carlo method, and improve the precision, a new method based on the neutron noise analysis technology was presented. This method employs the stochastic simulation and the theory of neutron noise analysis technology. Firstly, the evolution of stochastic neutron was simulated by discrete-events Monte-Carlo method based on the theory of generalized Semi-Markov process, then the neutron noise in detectors was solved from neutron signal. Secondly, the neutron noise analysis methods such as Rossi α method, Feynman α method, zero-probability method, and cross-correlation method were used to calculate α value. All of the parameters used in neutron noise analysis method were calculated based on auto-adaptive arithmetic. The α value from these methods accords with each other, the largest relative deviation is 7.9%, which proves the feasibility of α calculation method based on neutron noise analysis stochastic simulation.
