Comparative analysis of reactivity calculations for the CERMET fueled ADS with serpent and MCNP6 codes

The purpose of this study is to verify the accuracy of innovative ADS core modeling by using simulation codes. The reactivity calculations of CERMET loaded fuel ADS was conducted using two Monte Carlo codes, Serpent [8] and MCNP6 [9] with ENDF/B-VII.0 library [10]. The comparison of results obtained from the two codes is analyzed and discussed in this study.
