PHISICS (Parallel and Highly Innovative Simulation for the INL Code System) [4] code toolkit is being developed at the Idaho National Laboratory. This package is intended to provide a modern analysis tool for reactor physics investigation. It is designed with the mindset to maximize accuracy for a given availability of computational resources and to give state of the art tools to the nuclear engineer. This is obtained by implementing several different algorithms and meshing approaches among which the user will be able to choose, in order to optimize his computational resources and accuracy needs. The software is completely modular in order to simplify the independent development of modules by different teams and future maintenance. PHISICS can be run in parallel to takes advantage of multiple computer cores (10 to 100 cores). In addition, the package is coupled with the system safety analysis code RELAP5-3D [3].

Abstract
PHISICS (Parallel and Highly Innovative Simulation for the INL Code System) [4] code toolkit is being developed at the Idaho National Laboratory. This package is intended to provide a modern analysis tool for reactor physics investigation. It is designed with the mindset to maximize accuracy for a given availability of computational resources and to give state of the art tools to the nuclear engineer. This is obtained by implementing several different algorithms and meshing approaches among which the user will be able to choose, in order to optimize his computational resources and accuracy needs. The software is completely modular in order to simplify the independent development of modules by different teams and future maintenance. PHISICS can be run in parallel to takes advantage of multiple computer cores (10 to 100 cores). In addition, the package is coupled with the system safety analysis code RELAP5-3D [3]. In the following the structure of the different PHISICS modules is brieflyI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
