An Analytical Solution for a One Dimensional Time-Dependent Neutron Transport Problem with External Source
Bruno Rudi Merk · Transport Theory and Statistical Physics · 2008
An analytical solution for the startup of an external source in a homogenized one-dimensional subcritical reactor problem is developed. The problem is described through an approximation of the Boltzmann Transport equation, the Telegrapher's or time-dependent P 1 equation. The analytical solution to the problem is expressed in terms of a Green's function. First results are analyzed qualitatively.
