Summary
The Saxton critical experiments were simulated with homogenized region, multigroup cross sections from the WIMS-D4M lattice physics code (ENDF/B-V library) and the diffusion code, DIF3D. The simulations were focused on assessing the codes` capabilities, including the different cell models available in WIMS-D4M. The accuracy of the core power distributions obtained with DIF3D has also been assessed. The number of experiments and their variety was used to obtain statistical parameters that allow a quantitative discussion of the assessment of the methodology.
