Introduction

This project primarily serves as a reference to the methods used to generate a moment dataset for parameterizing the incident and outgoing fluxes, as well as the local multiplication factor and the pin flux distribution for training a machine learning model to implement the incident flux response method. Included is also a utility package which was used to postprocess moment and mesh tallies and perform flux reconstruction from these moments following the theory described in TODO.

Installation and Setup

This package is published on PyPI, and so can be installed (along with all of the necessary dependencies) via pip

pip install pincell_moment_utils

Note some of the features require the ability to run transport simulations with OpenMC, which require a valid set of cross sections, which can be installed using the scripts here.
