Abstract

A finite element method is formulated for one-speed integral equation it or the neutron transport in a slab reactor. The formulation incorporates both the linear and the cubic Hermite interpolating polynomials and is used to compute the approximate solutions for the slab criticality and Milne problem. The results are compared with the exact solutions available and then the effectiveness of the method is extensively discussed.

슬레브형로내의 중성자수송에 관한 적분 방정식을 유한요소법으로 기술했다. Hermite 내삽에 의한 1차 및 3차 다항식을 사용하여 얻은 수식으로 글레브형로의 임계치와 Milne 문제의 근사해를 계산하고 해석해와의 비교를 통하여 유한 요소법의 유용성을 논의했다.
