Simulation setup using Proper
5.1
Overview
COMP23 can be run as a submodel of the PROPER package. A User Guide for the
PROPER package is given in reference /12/. This section gives details specific to
running COMP23 as a submodel of PROPER.
Section 5.2 describes the input files that are required by the PROPER package when
COMP23 is included as a submodel.
The PROPER version of COMP23 uses the HYDRASTAR User Interface (HUI) /13/.
HUI is a preprocessing facility incorporated into the HYDRASTAR code and the
COMP23 code. The main objectives of the HUI are:
• Free-format input in a single input file.
• Input data validity testing.
• Input data consistency checking.
A general description of the HUI input file is given in Section 5.3 of this report. A detailed description of the COMP23 input required is given in Section 5.4.
Details of the output produced by the HUI interface are discussed in Section 5.5.
5.2
Input files required
The following input files are required to run COMP23 as a submodel of PROPER:
Name
Description
system.dsc
The system description file that is used for all PROPER simulations. The input requirements
for this file are described in more detail below.
casename.inv,
casename.nam
These two files hold the information on the radionuclide inventories for one canister. The inventory files used by COMP23 are identical to the files used by TULLGARN /14/,
so these two files should preferably be links if TULLGARN is used in the same simulation.
casename is read in from the CONTROL block of the system.dsc file.
submod.lib
Lists the modules that are used by PROPER. The module name for COMP23 is COMP23
and it is connected as an internal submodel /12/.
5.3
HUI input
The following notational conventions are used to describe the format of the input data for this
model. In general the definition follows that of INFERENS /15/. A detailed description of
the input required when running the PROPER version of COMP23 is given in Section 5.4.
