摘要
A discrete ordinates method for a three-dimensional first-order neutron transport equation based on unstructured-meshes that avoids the singularity of the second-order neutron transport equation in void regions was derived. The finite element variation equation was obtained using the least-squares method. A three-dimensional transport calculation code was developed. Both the triangular-z and the tetrahedron elements were included. The numerical results of some benchmark problems demonstrated that this method can solve neutron transport problems in unstructured-meshes very well. For most problems, the error of the eigenvalue and the angular flux is less than 0.3% and 3.0% respectively.
