This IPython Notebook illustrates the use of the openmc.mgxs module to calculate multi-group cross sections for a heterogeneous fuel pin cell geometry. In particular, this Notebook illustrates the following features:

  • Creation of multi-group cross sections on a heterogeneous geometry
  • Calculation of cross sections on a nuclide-by-nuclide basis
  • The use of tally precision triggers with multi-group cross sections
  • Built-in features for energy condensation in downstream data processing
  • The use of the openmc.data module to plot continuous-energy vs. multi-group cross sections
  • Validation of multi-group cross sections with OpenMOC

Note: This Notebook was created using OpenMOC to verify the multi-group cross-sections generated by OpenMC. You must install OpenMOC on your system in order to run this Notebook in its entirety. In addition, this Notebook illustrates the use of Pandas DataFrames to containerize multi-group cross section data.

First we need to define materials that will be used in the problem. We'll create three distinct materials for water, clad and fuel.


In [2]:
# 1.6% enriched fuel
fuel = openmc.Material(name='1.6% Fuel')
fuel.set_density('g/cm3', 10.31341)
fuel.add_nuclide('U235', 3.7503e-4)
fuel.add_nuclide('U238', 2.2625e-2)
fuel.add_nuclide('O16', 4.6007e-2)

# borated water
water = openmc.Material(name='Borated Water')
water.set_density('g/cm3', 0.740582)
water.add_nuclide('H1', 4.9457e-2)
water.add_nuclide('O16', 2.4732e-2)

# zircaloy
zircaloy = openmc.Material(name='Zircaloy')
zircaloy.set_density('g/cm3', 6.55)
zircaloy.add_nuclide('Zr90', 7.2758e-3)

With our materials, we can now create a Materials object that can be exported to an actual XML file.


In [3]:
# Instantiate a Materials collection
materials_file = openmc.Materials([fuel, water, zircaloy])

# Export to "materials.xml"
materials_file.export_to_xml()

Now let's move on to the geometry. Our problem will have three regions for the fuel, the clad, and the surrounding coolant. The first step is to create the bounding surfaces -- in this case two cylinders and six reflective planes.


In [4]:
# Create cylinders for the fuel and clad
fuel_outer_radius = openmc.ZCylinder(x0=0.0, y0=0.0, r=0.39218)
clad_outer_radius = openmc.ZCylinder(x0=0.0, y0=0.0, r=0.45720)

# Create box to surround the geometry
box = openmc.model.rectangular_prism(1.26, 1.26, boundary_type='reflective')

With the surfaces defined, we can now create cells that are defined by intersections of half-spaces created by the surfaces.


In [5]:
# Create a Universe to encapsulate a fuel pin
pin_cell_universe = openmc.Universe(name='1.6% Fuel Pin')

# Create fuel Cell
fuel_cell = openmc.Cell(name='1.6% Fuel')
fuel_cell.fill = fuel
fuel_cell.region = -fuel_outer_radius
pin_cell_universe.add_cell(fuel_cell)

# Create a clad Cell
clad_cell = openmc.Cell(name='1.6% Clad')
clad_cell.fill = zircaloy
clad_cell.region = +fuel_outer_radius & -clad_outer_radius
pin_cell_universe.add_cell(clad_cell)

# Create a moderator Cell
moderator_cell = openmc.Cell(name='1.6% Moderator')
moderator_cell.fill = water
moderator_cell.region = +clad_outer_radius & box
pin_cell_universe.add_cell(moderator_cell)

We now must create a geometry with the pin cell universe and export it to XML.


In [6]:
# Create Geometry and set root Universe
openmc_geometry = openmc.Geometry(pin_cell_universe)

# Export to "geometry.xml"
openmc_geometry.export_to_xml()

Next, we must define simulation parameters. In this case, we will use 10 inactive batches and 40 active batches each with 10,000 particles.


In [7]:
# OpenMC simulation parameters
batches = 50
inactive = 10
particles = 10000

# Instantiate a Settings object
settings_file = openmc.Settings()
settings_file.batches = batches
settings_file.inactive = inactive
settings_file.particles = particles
settings_file.output = {'tallies': True}

# Create an initial uniform spatial source distribution over fissionable zones
bounds = [-0.63, -0.63, -0.63, 0.63, 0.63, 0.63]
uniform_dist = openmc.stats.Box(bounds[:3], bounds[3:], only_fissionable=True)
settings_file.source = openmc.Source(space=uniform_dist)

# Activate tally precision triggers
settings_file.trigger_active = True
settings_file.trigger_max_batches = settings_file.batches * 4

# Export to "settings.xml"
settings_file.export_to_xml()

Now we are finally ready to make use of the openmc.mgxs module to generate multi-group cross sections! First, let's define "coarse" 2-group and "fine" 8-group structures using the built-in EnergyGroups class.


In [8]:
# Instantiate a "coarse" 2-group EnergyGroups object
coarse_groups = mgxs.EnergyGroups([0., 0.625, 20.0e6])

# Instantiate a "fine" 8-group EnergyGroups object
fine_groups = mgxs.EnergyGroups([0., 0.058, 0.14, 0.28,
                                 0.625, 4.0, 5.53e3, 821.0e3, 20.0e6])

Now we will instantiate a variety of MGXS objects needed to run an OpenMOC simulation to verify the accuracy of our cross sections. In particular, we define transport, fission, nu-fission, nu-scatter and chi cross sections for each of the three cells in the fuel pin with the 8-group structure as our energy groups.


In [9]:
# Extract all Cells filled by Materials
openmc_cells = openmc_geometry.get_all_material_cells().values()

# Create dictionary to store multi-group cross sections for all cells
xs_library = {}

# Instantiate 8-group cross sections for each cell
for cell in openmc_cells:
    xs_library[cell.id] = {}
    xs_library[cell.id]['transport']  = mgxs.TransportXS(groups=fine_groups)
    xs_library[cell.id]['fission'] = mgxs.FissionXS(groups=fine_groups)
    xs_library[cell.id]['nu-fission'] = mgxs.FissionXS(groups=fine_groups, nu=True)
    xs_library[cell.id]['nu-scatter'] = mgxs.ScatterMatrixXS(groups=fine_groups, nu=True)
    xs_library[cell.id]['chi'] = mgxs.Chi(groups=fine_groups)

Next, we showcase the use of OpenMC's tally precision trigger feature in conjunction with the openmc.mgxs module. In particular, we will assign a tally trigger of 1E-2 on the standard deviation for each of the tallies used to compute multi-group cross sections.


In [10]:
# Create a tally trigger for +/- 0.01 on each tally used to compute the multi-group cross sections
tally_trigger = openmc.Trigger('std_dev', 1e-2)

# Add the tally trigger to each of the multi-group cross section tallies
for cell in openmc_cells:
    for mgxs_type in xs_library[cell.id]:
        xs_library[cell.id][mgxs_type].tally_trigger = tally_trigger

Now, we must loop over all cells to set the cross section domains to the various cells - fuel, clad and moderator - included in the geometry. In addition, we will set each cross section to tally cross sections on a per-nuclide basis through the use of the MGXS class' boolean by_nuclide instance attribute.


In [11]:
# Instantiate an empty Tallies object
tallies_file = openmc.Tallies()

# Iterate over all cells and cross section types
for cell in openmc_cells:
    for rxn_type in xs_library[cell.id]:

        # Set the cross sections domain to the cell
        xs_library[cell.id][rxn_type].domain = cell
        
        # Tally cross sections by nuclide
        xs_library[cell.id][rxn_type].by_nuclide = True
                
        # Add OpenMC tallies to the tallies file for XML generation
        for tally in xs_library[cell.id][rxn_type].tallies.values():
            tallies_file.append(tally, merge=True)

# Export to "tallies.xml"
tallies_file.export_to_xml()

  warn(msg, IDWarning)

Now we a have a complete set of inputs, so we can go ahead and run our simulation.

Tally Data Processing

Our simulation ran successfully and created statepoint and summary output files. We begin our analysis by instantiating a StatePoint object.


In [13]:
# Load the last statepoint file
sp = openmc.StatePoint('statepoint.082.h5')

The statepoint is now ready to be analyzed by our multi-group cross sections. We simply have to load the tallies from the StatePoint into each object as follows and our MGXS objects will compute the cross sections for us under-the-hood.


In [14]:
# Iterate over all cells and cross section types
for cell in openmc_cells:
    for rxn_type in xs_library[cell.id]:
        xs_library[cell.id][rxn_type].load_from_statepoint(sp)

That's it! Our multi-group cross sections are now ready for the big spotlight. This time we have cross sections in three distinct spatial zones - fuel, clad and moderator - on a per-nuclide basis.

Extracting and Storing MGXS Data

Let's first inspect one of our cross sections by printing it to the screen as a microscopic cross section in units of barns.

Our multi-group cross sections are capable of summing across all nuclides to provide us with macroscopic cross sections as well.

Although a printed report is nice, it is not scalable or flexible. Let's extract the microscopic cross section data for the moderator as a Pandas DataFrame .


In [17]:
nuscatter = xs_library[moderator_cell.id]['nu-scatter']
df = nuscatter.get_pandas_dataframe(xs_type='micro')
df.head(10)

Next, we illustate how one can easily take multi-group cross sections and condense them down to a coarser energy group structure. The MGXS class includes a get_condensed_xs(...) method which takes an EnergyGroups parameter with a coarse(r) group structure and returns a new MGXS condensed to the coarse groups. We illustrate this process below using the 2-group structure created earlier.


In [18]:
# Extract the 8-group transport cross section for the fuel
fine_xs = xs_library[fuel_cell.id]['transport']

# Condense to the 2-group structure
condensed_xs = fine_xs.get_condensed_xs(coarse_groups)

Group condensation is as simple as that! We now have a new coarse 2-group TransportXS in addition to our original 8-group TransportXS. Let's inspect the 2-group TransportXS by printing it to the screen and extracting a Pandas DataFrame as we have already learned how to do.

Verification with OpenMOC

Now, let's verify our cross sections using OpenMOC. First, we construct an equivalent OpenMOC geometry.


In [21]:
# Create an OpenMOC Geometry from the OpenMC Geometry
openmoc_geometry = get_openmoc_geometry(sp.summary.geometry)

Next, we we can inject the multi-group cross sections into the equivalent fuel pin cell OpenMOC geometry.


In [22]:
# Get all OpenMOC cells in the gometry
openmoc_cells = openmoc_geometry.getRootUniverse().getAllCells()

# Inject multi-group cross sections into OpenMOC Materials
for cell_id, cell in openmoc_cells.items():
    
    # Ignore the root cell
    if cell.getName() == 'root cell':
        continue
    
    # Get a reference to the Material filling this Cell
    openmoc_material = cell.getFillMaterial()
    
    # Set the number of energy groups for the Material
    openmoc_material.setNumEnergyGroups(fine_groups.num_groups)
    
    # Extract the appropriate cross section objects for this cell
    transport = xs_library[cell_id]['transport']
    nufission = xs_library[cell_id]['nu-fission']
    nuscatter = xs_library[cell_id]['nu-scatter']
    chi = xs_library[cell_id]['chi']
    
    # Inject NumPy arrays of cross section data into the Material
    # NOTE: Sum across nuclides to get macro cross sections needed by OpenMOC
    openmoc_material.setSigmaT(transport.get_xs(nuclides='sum').flatten())
    openmoc_material.setNuSigmaF(nufission.get_xs(nuclides='sum').flatten())
    openmoc_material.setSigmaS(nuscatter.get_xs(nuclides='sum').flatten())
    openmoc_material.setChi(chi.get_xs(nuclides='sum').flatten())

We are now ready to run OpenMOC to verify our cross-sections from OpenMC.

# Generate tracks for OpenMOC
track_generator = openmoc.TrackGenerator(openmoc_geometry, num_azim=128, azim_spacing=0.1)

There is a non-trivial bias in both the 2-group and 8-group cases. In the case of a pin cell, one can show that these biases do not converge to <100 pcm with more particle histories. For heterogeneous geometries, additional measures must be taken to address the following three sources of bias:

  • Appropriate transport-corrected cross sections
  • Spatial discretization of OpenMOC's mesh
  • Constant-in-angle multi-group cross sections

Visualizing MGXS Data

It is often insightful to generate visual depictions of multi-group cross sections. There are many different types of plots which may be useful for multi-group cross section visualization, only a few of which will be shown here for enrichment and inspiration.

One particularly useful visualization is a comparison of the continuous-energy and multi-group cross sections for a particular nuclide and reaction type. We illustrate one option for generating such plots with the use of the openmc.plotter module to plot continuous-energy cross sections from the openly available cross section library distributed by NNDC.

The MGXS data can also be plotted using the openmc.plot_xs command, however we will do this manually here to show how the openmc.Mgxs.get_xs method can be used to obtain data.


In [28]:
# Create a figure of the U-235 continuous-energy fission cross section 
fig = openmc.plot_xs('U235', ['fission'])

# Get the axis to use for plotting the MGXS
ax = fig.gca()

# Extract energy group bounds and MGXS values to plot
fission = xs_library[fuel_cell.id]['fission']
energy_groups = fission.energy_groups
x = energy_groups.group_edges
y = fission.get_xs(nuclides=['U235'], order_groups='decreasing', xs_type='micro')
y = np.squeeze(y)

# Fix low energy bound
x[0] = 1.e-5

# Extend the mgxs values array for matplotlib's step plot
y = np.insert(y, 0, y[0])

# Create a step plot for the MGXS
ax.plot(x, y, drawstyle='steps', color='r', linewidth=3)

ax.set_title('U-235 Fission Cross Section')
ax.legend(['Continuous', 'Multi-Group'])
ax.set_xlim((x.min(), x.max()))

Another useful type of illustration is scattering matrix sparsity structures. First, we extract Pandas DataFrames for the H-1 and O-16 scattering matrices.


In [29]:
# Construct a Pandas DataFrame for the microscopic nu-scattering matrix
nuscatter = xs_library[moderator_cell.id]['nu-scatter']
df = nuscatter.get_pandas_dataframe(xs_type='micro')

# Slice DataFrame in two for each nuclide's mean values
h1 = df[df['nuclide'] == 'H1']['mean']
o16 = df[df['nuclide'] == 'O16']['mean']

# Cast DataFrames as NumPy arrays
h1 = h1.values
o16 = o16.values

# Reshape arrays to 2D matrix for plotting
h1.shape = (fine_groups.num_groups, fine_groups.num_groups)
o16.shape = (fine_groups.num_groups, fine_groups.num_groups)

Matplotlib's imshow routine can be used to plot the matrices to illustrate their sparsity structures.


In [30]:
# Create plot of the H-1 scattering matrix
fig = plt.subplot(121)
fig.imshow(h1, interpolation='nearest', cmap='jet')
plt.title('H-1 Scattering Matrix')
plt.xlabel('Group Out')
plt.ylabel('Group In')

# Create plot of the O-16 scattering matrix
fig2 = plt.subplot(122)
fig2.imshow(o16, interpolation='nearest', cmap='jet')
plt.title('O-16 Scattering Matrix')
plt.xlabel('Group Out')
plt.ylabel('Group In')

# Show the plot on screen
plt.show()
