Griffin-m

Griffin-m is a MOOSE-based reactor multiphysics application that streamlines the analysis of a variety of nuclear multiphysics simulations, including steady-state and transient radiation transport, core performance, fuel depletion, criticality and decay heat calculations, reprocessing and post-irradiation examination. This streamlining is accomplished via enhanced flexibility of the tools, uniform syntax in the MOOSE framework, dynamic linking of all relevant physics and a single point of execution. The design for flexible multi-physics, multi-radiation, multi-scheme tasks demands and ultimately makes Griffin-m a highly extendable code system. A software quality assurance (SQA) procedure is enforced during Griffin-m development. The Griffin-m version will be the main production version and it includes the MCC3 code, which was originally developed at Argonne National Laboratory to prepare cross sections for fast reactors.
