Abstract

An activation comparison study was completed under the coordination of the IAEA Nuclear Data Section.It was participated by 11 regionally or internationally available computer codes developed principally for fusion reactor technology applications.A set of benchmark cross section and decay data libraries was established for all participating codes to use.Two calculations were performed for the respective targets, Cr-50 and natural iron, at a specified neutron spectrum at the first wall of a fusion reactor.The irradiation time was set for one year continuously for both cases.The results were compared and discussed.
