Abstract

The paper describes the automatic generation of a JET 3D neutronics model from data of computer aided design (CAD) system for Monte Carlo (MC) calculations. The applied method converts suitable CAD data into a representation appropriate for MC codes. The converted geometry is fully equivalent to the CAD geometry.
