title = "Two step procedure by using a 1-D slab spectral geometry for a pebble bed reactor core analysis",
abstract = "In this paper, we demonstrate a two step procedure for a pebble bed reactor core analysis. In the first step, we generate equivalent cross sections from a 1-D slab spectral geometry model with the help of the equivalence theory. In the second step, we perform a diffusion calculation by using the equivalent cross sections generated in the first step. A simple 2-D benchmark problem derived from the PMBR-400 reactor was introduced to verify the two step procedure. We compared the two step solutions with the Monte Carlo solutions for the problem and found that the two step solutions agreed well with the Monte Carlo solutions within an acceptable error range.",
