Results of S/sub N/ and Monte Carlo one-dimensional neutron/gamma-ray transport calculations for conceptual designs of the INESCO RIGGATRON, a Tokamak device using ohmic heating to induce fusion, are detailed. Using various plasma, coil, and blanket configurations, a comparative analysis of cross-section sets is first performed. Scoping calculations of tritium breeding ratios, absorptions, leakages, and neutron/gamma-ray heating are detailed using both multigroup discrete-ordinates and Monte Carlo techniques. Results of this analysis not only serve to provide preliminary design parameters, but also indicate relative degree of consistency among various cross-section sets. Consistency between S/sub N/ and Monte Carlo techniques is similarly demonstrated. Results of this one-dimensional compilation also suggest a two-dimensional RIGGATRON model for related study. |
