- TL;DR Summary
- Different fuels are giving the same burnup in MCNP
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to compare 3 different fuels and MCNP and I want to recover the burnup of each. When I do that however, I get identical numbers for burnup, which doesn't make sense to me, as they have different materials (LEU vs LEU+ vs a thorium-based fuel).
Does anyone know what could be the issue here? My understanding is that burnup is the energy reduced per unit mass of isotopes >=90, so it should be pretty different for these 3 cases. I uploaded the 3 out files.
Thanks!
