- Abstract
The results of a verification of the BONUS method as regards predictions of the time dependence of the mass and activity of fission products produced in thermal reactors are presented. Different standard regimes of fuel irradiation in VVER-1000 are examined, and the results calculated using the autonomous version of the BONUS code and as a module integrated into SOCRAT code are compared with the results obtained using other codes, including precision program complexes. On the whole, the calculation shows good agreement between BONUS and alternative codes; the standard deviation variance is 6–13.5% for fission product mass and activity, which is comparable to the discrepancies between different variants of the alternative calculations themselves.
