The OpenMC Monte Carlo Code
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
OpenMC is a community-developed Monte Carlo neutron and photon transport
|
|
simulation code. It is capable of performing fixed source, k-eigenvalue, and
|
|
subcritical multiplication calculations on models built using either a
|
|
constructive solid geometry or CAD representation. OpenMC supports both
|
|
continuous-energy and multigroup transport. The continuous-energy particle
|
|
interaction data is based on a native HDF5 format that can be generated from ACE
|
|
files produced by NJOY. Parallelism is enabled via a hybrid MPI and OpenMP
|
|
programming model.
|
|
|
|
OpenMC was originally developed by members of the `Computational Reactor Physics
|
|
Group <https://crpg.mit.edu>`_ at the `Massachusetts Institute of Technology
|
|
<https://web.mit.edu>`_ starting in 2011. Various universities, laboratories,
|
|
and other organizations now contribute to the development of OpenMC. For more
|
|

|

Forum <https://openmc.discourse.group/>`_.
