Abstract
A method of reducing errors when calculating a shape annealing function (SAF) of an ex-core detector of a nuclear power plant is provided. The method comprises 3-dimensionally modeling elements of the nuclear power plant comprising a nuclear reactor core, an ex-core detector disposed in a nuclear reactor cavity, and nuclear reactor structures arranged between the nuclear reactor core and the ex-core detector; predicting an arrival position for emitted neutrons, by using a Monte Carlo method when a neutron source arranged at the ex-core detector and neutrons emitted towards the nuclear reactor core, the predicted arrival position indicating where the emitted neutron will arrive at the nuclear reactor core; and producing an SAF based on a correlation between the neutron source arranged at the ex-core detector and the predicted arrival position of the neutrons.
