摘要：
The MCBurn, a coupled code system linking the Monte Carlo N-particle transport code(MCNP) and Oak Ridge isotope generation and depletion code (ORIGEN), can resolve the basic calculation problems in reactor physical design and analysis, such as criticality, power distribution, nuclide burn up, and neutron fluence. It has been verified in the pressurized water reactor (PWR) pin model, fast reactor (FR) burn up model, and boiling water reactor(BWR) assemble model with benchmarked results. In supercritical water reactor (SCWR) physical calculations, the calculation conditions such as the geometry, the neutron spectrum, and the fuel materials, etc., are more complex than those in traditional reactors, which is a great challenge to reactor physics calculation code. However, the MCBurn code is a possible solution. In this paper, several update functions of the MCBurn in new neutron cross-section lib, code interface, and neutron flux distribution were described. The application of the MCBurn in SCWR were verified on a supercritical water reactor assemble. The calculation results show that the MCBurn is accurate and adaptable in the SCWR calculation.
