Introduction to MCNP

Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport (MCNP) is a general-purpose, continuous-energy, generalized-geometry, time-dependent, Monte Carlo radiation transport code designed to track many particle types over broad ranges of energies and is developed by Los Alamos National Laboratory.

 

Session 1: Introduction to MCNP

 In the first session, the following items are taught

• What is Monte Carlo?

• A practical example with MCNP Monte Carlo

• Familiarity with some modifications in the core code

• MCNP applications

• Introducing the MCNPX version

• Computer hardware specifications for MCNP simulation

• Prerequisites for learning MCNP code

• Necessary tools for MCNP coding

• Introduction of MCNP modules

• MCNP program control

• Structure an input program in MCNP

• Units in MCNP

• How to run MCNP program

• Practice the first session

• Explain the concept of Monte Carlo?

• Why do we have to write a description in the Monte Carlo MCNP code?

• How is a multi-line description written in Monte Carlo code?

• Hassan is a student who has a laptop with 2 RAM and 500 hard drives and a dual-core processor. Can he use it for his thesis calculations?

• Name the different modules of the MCNP program and explain each one

 

 

Session 2: Defining Simple Levels in MCNP

 in the second session of MCNP training course, surface card definition was intrduced and diffrent surface card was discussed. 

surface cards that introduced are as below 

1) plane surface 

p-px -py-pz

2) Cylindrical surfaces in mcnp

CX -CY -CZ - C / X - C / Y - C / Z

3) Conical surface in MCNP 

KX -KY -KZ - K / X - K / Y - K / Z

 4) spherical surface 

S - SO - SX - SY - SZ

5) Macrobial levels

 RPP card

 RCC (RIGHT CIRCULAR CYLINDER ) card

Session 3: Cell Card

 The third session of the Monte Carlo MCNP Nuclear Code Training focus on cell card definition.  In the third session, the methods of defining the cell card will be introduced. The items described in this section are as below:

1) introduction to general structure of cell card defination 

2) Defining a cell card with a intersection method in MCNP

3) Cell definition by union method in MCNP

4) Use the exception method to defining cell cards in MCNP

5) How to copy cell card in MCNP

Session 4 :Data card

The fourth session of the Monte Carlo MCNP Nuclear Code Training

  In this session, following the Monte Carlo MCNP core code training and introducing cell and surface card cards in the previous sections, we want to teach the Monte Carlo MCNP core code in the data card section. The items that will be taught in the session include the following

Problem type card training in MCNP cell card

Particle Importance Card Training in MCNP Cell Card

Cards card instruction in MCNP cell card

History Card Tutorial on MCNP Cell Card

The fifth session of the Monte Carlo MCNP Nuclear Code Training

Session 5: Source card

Session 5 of the MCNP Monte Carlo Code Training Series explains the types of springs. In this session, each spring will be explained by categorizing the types of springs. The springs that will be taught in this session are

Point springs

Surface springs

Spherical volumetric springs

Cylindrical springs

Session 6: Tally cards

Sixth Monte Carlo MCNP Nuclear Code Training Session

 In the sixth session of the MCNP Monte Carlo Code Training Series, the results in the mcnp program will be examined.

 Tally No. 1

 Tally No. 2

 Tally No. 4

 Tally No. 5

 Tally No. 6

 Tally No. 7

 Tally No. 8

Tally formula

Different modes of tali

Drawing tali

Sassion 7: Drawing Geometry 

Seventh session of Monte Carlo MCNP nuclear code training

 In the seventh session of the MCNP Monte Carlo Code Training Series, the drawing of geometry in the program will be examined

First, drawing geometry in mcnp program is explained with the help of reflection software

Then the geometry is drawn with the help of a visual editor.

Session 8 - Transfer card and output check

In this session, the output file of an mcnp program will be examined. The topics that will be fully explained in this session are:

Familiarity with the output file structure

How to ensure the completion of the mcnp program

How to apply activity in the program output file

How to transfer the output file to Excel

How to get the result to the OriginPro program

How to convert mesh files

How to convert mctal files

How to work with grinconv software

How to calculate the counting rate of the program output file

Investigate the structure of the generated geometry based on the output

Statistical functions used in mcnp

How to calculate the optimal run time of mcnp program

Comparison between parallel thigh program output and normal thigh program

How to cut large output files and extract data from a few hundred gigs
