Abstract
PN approximation is applied to neutron transport equation in spherical geometry using Anlı-Güngör (AG) and Henyey-Greenstein (HG) phase functions. These phase functions are used for calculating critical radius and results of PN approximation obtained from AG and HG phase functions are compared with each other for different collision scattering function. The numerical results obtained from AG and HG phase functions are presented in the tables and these results are compared.
Kurzfassung
Die PN-Näherung wird auf die Neutronentransportgleichung angewendet mit Hilfe der Anlı-Güngör (AG) und Henyey-Greenstein (HG) Phasenfunktionen in sphärischer Geometrie. Diese Phasenfunktionen werden zur Berechnung des kritischen Radius verwendet und die Ergebnisse der PN-Näherung werden miteinander verglichen für verschiedene Streufunktionen. Die numerischen Ergebnisse werden in tabellarischer Form vorgestellt und verglichen.
