Abstrakt: Estimation of Core inventory simulation for PWR 160MWt has been done. Core inventory is one of the parameters related to the release of radioactive materials be used as data for further calculation or analysis related to nuclear safety. PWR 160 MWt has a core configuration consist of 37 fuel assemblies with three types of Uranium enrichment of the fuel. Core fission product inventory calculation was performed using ORIGEN2.1 by assuming the reactor irradiated for 2 years (fuel cycle) without cooling time. Simulation results in many radionuclides, some nuclides have long decay times (e.g. Cs-135; Cs-137), some have short-lived (e.g. I-136, Xe-140), some have high radioactivity (e.g. Xe-133; I-134) and some nuclides indicate a significant contribution to determining source term (e.g. I-131; Cs-137). Simulation results obtained can be used for further calculations for safety analysis such as determination of source term, dose calculation, and precautions to minimize the occurrence of radioactive to the environment.
