[BUG] - Issues with ITER Cylinder SDDR benchmark #304

Closed dodu94 closed 2 months ago

dodu94 commented 3 months ago

Describe the bug There are currently some issues with the ITER cylinder SDDR benchmark. The main one is that with the new d1s data libraries, an error is thrown by MCNP saying that particles are generated with zero importance. This does not happen with older libraries (even if the seed is the same). It is to be investigated if this is a library problem or a benchmark problem. Anyway, the benchmark should be checked, since strange importance values are assigned to the cells and the wwinp file appears to be very heavy (half a Gb).

Update: it appears that using older versions of D1S the benchmarks runs without problems

The error has been tracked down to a new functionality of later d1s releases. It can be easily solved by having as first cooldown time zero. The input has been updated to v2.0 here
