Abstract:
Abstract Comparison is a key component of legal reasoning. We move merrily from like to like within the doctrine of precedent. We invoke comparison whenever we distinguish or apply a case. This Article begins by elucidating how comparison is present in law. The Article shows how law cannot function without comparison, and how the legal world skips over the central role comparison plays in these matters. The Article explores the literature on legal comparison and draws on insights from philosophy, comparative law, and anthropology to better understand comparison in practice. This Article argues that while we are entangled in the questions of sameness and difference, of finding the function and tying together, we are still not asking the question of comparison. What is function and how is it related to comparison? Inspired by James Tully’s writings, the Article explores the aspectival views of the legal world suggested by the different games of comparison. The Article draws on Stephen Mulhall’s work on Wittgenstein’s seeing as, aspect dawning, and aspect blindness to further ask about our relationship to comparison. The Article shows how mainstream comparisons are ontic comparisons that think togetherness through the comparatist. The comparatist steers the belonging together and (un)makes the meaning of all things in mainstream comparison. The argument builds on earlier work by Igor Stramignoni, showing how the Western legal tradition is within a kind of Heideggerian calculative thinking. The Article explores the possibility of other kinds of comparison through Stramignoni’s poetic comparisons. This Article calls on us to slow down our comparisons and begin to question comparison itself.

Abstract:
Aiming at a high-power turbine of a certain 1000MW electric-generating unit, three calculation schemes were programmed to calculate the thermal parameters of steam in the flow passages. The comparison and analysis between the calculating results and the design values under the turbine rated load (TRL) verified the feasibilities of the calculation schemes. The thermal parameters of steam in flow passages under variable operating conditions were also obtained by the calculation. The calculating results could be the basic data needed by thermal stress analysis and life prediction of the turbine.

Abstract:
Hydrostatic Curves is widely used to calculate vessel’s displacement by ship’s officers and surveyors. However, under some specific circumstances such as light ballast arrival condition, it is difficult to obtain an accurate figure of displacement by using Hydrostatic curves. At this time, Bonjean curves as an alternative can be employed in calculating vessel’s displacement. The procedures are introduced step by step to calculate the vessel’s displacement by Bonjean’s curves. The differences of calculation by two means are demonstrated on a specific bulk carrier and therewith the reasons are analyzed. Finally, the article appeals the detailed Bonjean curves shall be provided on board by shipyard for improving the accuracy of calculation.

Abstract:
Purpose Family firms possess dual identities, being the family and the business, which can be segmented and integrated to various degrees. This study examines whether and how management control technologies are calibrated to fit into the dual identities of family firms. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative study of 20 family firms was conducted using semi-structured, in-depth interviews with owner-managers, drawings of mental maps and publicly available information. The notion of calibration was developed and used, with its three components of graduation, purpose and reference, as an organizing device for the interpretive understanding of the management control usage and its relation to family firms’ dual identities. Findings The study finds that the use of calculative, family-centric and procedural management controls – in sum the pervasive use of management control technologies – are associated with a professionalization of the family firm, a foregrounding of the business identity and a reduction of the disadvantageous side of familiness. In comparison, the pragmatic and minimal use of management control technologies are found to be associated with an emphasis on family identity. It transpires as liberating, engendering trust and unfolding a familial environment. Research limitations/implications Because results are derived from a qualitative approach, they are not generalizable at an empirical level. By showing how the use of management control technologies is calibrated with reference to family firms’ dual identities, the paper reveals the perceived potency of control technologies to affect the identity of firms. Practical implications The study reveals how family firms perceive management control technologies as strengthening their business identity while weakening their family identity. Thereby, this study provides an account of how management control technologies are expected to change the identity of firms. Originality/value This paper contributes to the management control and family business literatures because it uncovers how management control technologies are calibrated in reference to family firms’ dual identities. It shows that calculative, family-centric and procedural management controls are used to professionalize the firm and strengthen its business identity as well as to reduce the negative effects of the family identity. The paper also illustrates how the liberating force of using pragmatic and minimal control technologies can serve to give prominence to the family identity.

Abstract:
The Supreme Audit Agency is the institution that has the authority to calculate and determine state losses, but in its implementation, there are still requests for calculating state financial losses that have not been implemented. This study uses a normative juridical approach. Then it is analyzed qualitatively so that the results are obtained: First, the BPK-RI Representatives of Lampung Province have been given the trust by law enforcement officials to calculate and determine state losses, and the State Financial Loss Calculation Result Report submitted by BPK-RI is used as evidence in court as evidence regarding there is a state loss. Second, the methods used by BPK-RI in calculating state financial losses are by using several methods, namely the apple to apple comparison method, the production cost method, the comparison method between the contract value and the market price, the total loss, and the real cost method. The method used by BPK-RI Representatives of Lampung Province in calculating state losses is by using the simple cost method. This method is used by calculating the difference between the funds spent by the state to obtain goods/services from third parties, compared to the value of real expenditures incurred by the implementing party to provide goods/services to the state according to the agreed

Full text
Abstract:
The study of bi-material notches is becoming a topical problem as they can model geometrical or material discontinuities efficiently. Assessing the conditions for crack initiation in bimaterial notches makes it necessary to calculate the generalized stress intensity factors H. In contrast to the determination of the K factor for a crack in an isotropic homogeneous medium, for the ascertainment of a generalized stress intensity factor (GSIF) there is no procedure incorporated in the calculation systems. The calculation of these fracture mechanics parameters is not trivial and requires certain experience. Nevertheless, the accuracy of the H-factor calculation directly influences the reliability of the assessment of the singular stress concentrators. Direct methods of the estimation of H factors usually require choosing the length parameter entering into the calculation. Two types of direct methods of calculating the GSIFs are presented, tested and mutually compared. Recommendations for reliable estimation of H factors are suggested.

Abstract:
While there have been so many speculations on calculating a more accurate estimate of COVID-19 mortality since the start of this pandemic, the complexity of the issue along with differences in reporting and testing systems has prevented accurate COVID-19 mortality calculations. Some non-controlled variables affect any mortality calculation which makes real estimation of the COVID-19 mortality extremely challenging and even impossible. Here we would like to re-calculate and compare the estimated COVID-19 mortality in Europe and the United States based on the currently available reported data.

Abstract:
Since the profitability of VLSI industries is related to yield, the IC manufacturer finds it highly desirable to be able to predict the yield by computer-aided methods. A key part in the procedure to obtain yield by computer simulation is to find the critical area of a layout. This thesis is primarily devoted to the calculations of critical area. There are two techniques to find the critical area. In the first technique, an analytic method was used to analyze the circuit geometry in order to find the critical area. In the second technique a Monte Carlo Method is used. A program using this Monte Carlo yield simulation (the main method used in this thesis) has been developed for determining critical area of the metal layer of a 4K random access memory. The analytic method is used in a supporting way. The thesis also proposes an easy method to process the vast amount of layout database. This method reduces the time consumed by Monte Carlo simulation.

Abstract:
In a recent paper, we compared the diffraction and geometrical optical transfer functions (OTFs) of an optical imaging system, and showed that the GOTF approximates the DOTF within 10% when a primary aberration is about two waves or larger [Appl. Opt., 55, 3241-3250 (2016)]. In this paper, we determine and compare the times to calculate the DOTF by autocorrelation or digital autocorrelation of the pupil function, and by a Fourier transform (FT) of the point-spread function (PSF); and the GOTF by a FT of the geometrical PSF and its approximation, the spot diagram. Our starting point for calculating the DOTF is the wave aberrations of the system in its pupil plane, and the ray aberrations in the image plane for the GOTF. The numerical results for primary aberrations and a typical imaging system show that the direct integrations are slow, but the calculation of the DOTF by a FT of the PSF is generally faster than the GOTF calculation by a FT of the spot diagram.

Abstract:
There are two basic models that are used to calculate the internal work involved in movement. The first, an energy-based model, calculates the changes in the energy of the segments. There are many variations of this model but Aleshinsky (1986) has shown that this approach lacks mathematical validity. The other, a power-based model, integrates the joint powers to find work. A modified power model (using absolute values) was shown by Aleshinsky (1986) to be mathematically valid but has only been used in two studies (Chapman et al., 1987; Caldwell and Forrester, 1992) each having only one subject. A version of this model was used in this study and was termed the absolute power method. For comparison purposes a modified version of the energy approach, called the absolute work method, was used. The internal work was then normalized for body mass and running velocity to obtain the "internal biomechanical cost" (IBC). The IBCs of normal running for four elite male and four elite female runners were compared to their IBCs of four inefficient running styles. The absolute power method was able to detect that the inefficient runs produced significantly higher internal work than normal running in 30 out of 32 cases (94%). Absolute work (the energy approach) could detect the inefficient runs in only 15 out of 32 cases (46%). As well, the absolute work approach was shown to be more variable and less reliable than the absolute power approach. The absolute power method also proved to be a useful tool for examining the work performed at each joint during a movement, thereby providing insight into where significant inefficiencies occur.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In recent decades, economists and sociologists have taken an increasing interest in the study of income attainment and income inequality. Many of these studies have used census data, but social surveys have also increasingly been utilised as sources for these analyses. In these surveys, respondents’ incomes are most often not measured in true amounts, but in categories of which the last category is open-ended. The reason is that income is seen as sensitive data and/or is sometimes difficult to reveal. Continuous data divided into categories is often more difficult to work with than ungrouped data. In this study, we compare different methods to convert grouped data to data where each observation has a specific value or point. For some methods, all the observations in an interval receive the same value; an example is the midpoint method, where all the observations in an interval are assigned the midpoint. Other methods include random methods, where each observation receives a random point between the lower and upper bound of the interval. For some methods, random and non-random, a distribution is fitted to the data and a value is calculated according to the distribution. The non-random methods that we use are the midpoint-, Pareto means- and lognormal means methods; the random methods are the random midpoint-, random Pareto- and random lognormal methods. Since our focus falls on income data, which usually follows a heavy-tailed distribution, we use the Pareto and lognormal distributions in our methods. The above-mentioned methods are applied to simulated and real datasets. The raw values of these datasets are known, and are categorised into intervals. These methods are then applied to the interval data to reconvert the interval data to point data. To test the effectiveness of these methods, we calculate some measures of inequality. The measures considered are the Gini coefficient, quintile share ratio (QSR), the Theil measure and the Atkinson measure. The estimated measures of inequality, calculated from each dataset obtained through these methods, are then compared to the true measures of inequality.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Oor die afgelope dekades het ekonome en sosioloë ʼn toenemende belangstelling getoon in studies aangaande inkomsteverkryging en inkomste-ongelykheid. Baie van die studies maak gebruik van sensus data, maar die gebruik van sosiale opnames as bronne vir die ontledings het ook merkbaar toegeneem. In die opnames word die inkomste van ʼn persoon meestal in kategorieë aangedui waar die laaste interval oop is, in plaas van numeriese waardes. Die rede vir die kategorieë is dat inkomste data as sensitief beskou word en soms is dit ook moeilik om aan te dui. Kontinue data wat in kategorieë opgedeel is, is meeste van die tyd moeiliker om mee te werk as ongegroepeerde data. In dié studie word verskeie metodes vergelyk om gegroepeerde data om te skakel na data waar elke waarneming ʼn numeriese waarde het. Vir van die metodes word dieselfde waarde aan al die waarnemings in ʼn interval gegee, byvoorbeeld die ‘midpoint’ metode waar elke waarde die middelpunt van die interval verkry. Ander metodes is ewekansige metodes waar elke waarneming ʼn ewekansige waarde kry tussen die onder- en bogrens van die interval. Vir sommige van die metodes, ewekansig en nie-ewekansig, word ʼn verdeling oor die data gepas en ʼn waarde bereken volgens die verdeling. Die nie-ewekansige metodes wat gebruik word, is die ‘midpoint’, ‘Pareto means’ en ‘Lognormal means’ en die ewekansige metodes is die ‘random midpoint’, ‘random Pareto’ en ‘random lognormal’. Ons fokus is op inkomste data, wat gewoonlik ʼn swaar stertverdeling volg, en om hierdie rede maak ons gebruik van die Pareto en lognormaal verdelings in ons metodes. Al die metodes word toegepas op gesimuleerde en werklike datastelle. Die rou waardes van die datastelle is bekend en word in intervalle gekategoriseer. Die metodes word dan op die interval data toegepas om dit terug te skakel na data waar elke waarneming ʼn numeriese waardes het. Om die doeltreffendheid van die metodes te toets word ʼn paar maatstawwe van ongelykheid bereken. Die maatstawwe sluit in die Gini koeffisiënt, ‘quintile share ratio’ (QSR), die Theil en Atkinson maatstawwe. Die beraamde maatstawwe van ongelykheid, wat bereken is vanaf die datastelle verkry deur die metodes, word dan vergelyk met die ware maatstawwe van ongelykheid.

Full text
Abstract:
In this work a distributed computing system (RTGrid) has been configured and deployed to provide a statistically robust comparison of Monte Carlo (MC) and analytical dose calculations. 52 clinical oesophageal radiotherapy plans were retrospectively re-calculated using the Pencil Beam Enhanced (PBE) and Collapsed Cone Enhanced (CCE) algorithm within the Oncentra v4.3 radiotherapy (RT) Treatment Planning System (TPS). Simulations were performed using the BEAMnrc and DOSXYZnrc codes. The Computing Environment for Radiotherapy Research (CERR) has been used to calculate Dose Volume Histogram (DVH) parameters such as the volume receiving 95% Dose for the Planning Target Volume (PTV) for the PBE, CCE and MC calculated dose distributions. An initial sample of 12 oesophageal radiotherapy treatment plans were simulated using the RTGrid system. The differences in the DVH parameters between the dose calculation methods, and the variance in the 12 cases, were used to calculate the sample size needed. The required sample size was determined to be 37, so a further 40 oesophageal cases were simulated, following the same method. The median difference in the PTV V95% between CCE and MC in the group of 40 cases was found to be 3%. To choose a suitable test for the statistical significance of the difference, the Shapiro-Wilk test was performed, which showed that the differences between the two sets of PTV V95% values did not follow a Gaussian. Therefore the Wilcoxon matched pairs test was indicated, which showed that the null hypothesis (i.e. that the distributions are the same) was rejected with a p-value less than 0.001, so there is very strong evidence for a difference in the two sets of values of PTV V95%. Similar statistical analyses were performed for other DVH parameters, as well as Conformance Indices used to describe the agreement between the 95% dose and the PTV, and estimates of the Tumour Control Probability (TCP). From the results, the use of MC simulations are recommended when non-soft tissue voxels make up > 60% of the PTV.

Two numerical models, one kinematic and one dynamic, were created and compared in their ability to predict trajectories of atmospheric parcels over eight days. While kinematic models are more widely used due to their accuracy, dynamic models can be used pedagogically to visualize the balance of forces in the atmosphere. The kinematic model used gridded wind speed data from the Global Forecast System (GFS) to predict parcel flow, while the dynamic model calculated wind speeds from advection equations using geopotential height fields from GFS. The trajectories of ensembles of parcels were simulated from five launch locations. The spread of parcels from each location was calculated along with the deviation from reference trajectories. The dynamic model performed comparably to the kinematic model, despite the presence of inertial oscillations in some computed trajectories at mid- and high- latitudes which are likely to be physically unrealistic. The dynamic model was more sensitive to changes in spatial resolution than the kinematic model. Dynamic trajectory models were shown to be accurate enough to be used as a tool to visualize the interplay of forces acting in the atmosphere.

Full text
Abstract:
The research presented in this thesis examines the calculation of numerical likelihood ratios using phonetic and linguistic parameters derived from a corpus of recordings of speakers of Southern Standard British English. The research serves as an investigation into the development of the numerical likelihood ratio as a medium for framing forensic speaker comparison conclusions. The thesis begins by investigating which parameters are claimed to be the most useful speaker discriminants according to expert opinion, and in turn examines four of these ‘selected/valued’ parameters individually in relation to intra- and inter-speaker variation, their capacities as speaker discriminants, and the potential strength of evidence they yield. The four parameters analyzed are articulation rate, fundamental frequency, long-term formant distributions, and the incidence of clicks (velaric ingressive plosives). The final portion of the thesis considers the combination of the four parameters under a numerical likelihood ratio framework in order to provide an overall likelihood ratio. The contributions of this research are threefold. Firstly, the thesis presents for the first time a comprehensive survey of current forensic speaker comparison practices around the world. Secondly, it expands the phonetic literature by providing acoustic and auditory analysis, as well as population statistics, for four phonetic and linguistic parameters that survey participants have identified as effective speaker discriminants. And thirdly, it contributes to the forensic speech science and likelihood ratios for forensics literature by considering what steps can be taken to conceptually align the area of forensic speaker comparison with more developed areas of forensic science (e.g. DNA) by creating a human-based (auditory and acoustic-phonetic) forensic speaker comparison system.

Abstract:
Experimental investigations of the creep-rupture properties of metal of intermediate heat exchangers (IHX) from fast breeder reactor BN-600 after its operation during ∼ 170 thousands hours over temperature range of 500–550°C were carried out. IHX was produced from 18Cr-9Ni steel. To study the role of thermal aging part of the IHX metal was annealed at 1000–1050°C for 0.5 hours. Comparison of experimental results of aging metal and annealed metal was carried out and the microstructure and fractography of both materials examined. The effect of aging on the creep-rupture properties of 18Cr-9Ni steel was revealed and described by the physical and mechanical model of intergranular fracture. On the basis of experimental and calculative results an explanation of the effect of long-term aging on the mechanical short-term and creep-rupture properties of 18Cr-9Ni steel has been provided.

Full text
Abstract:
In ASME Section VIII, Division 1, rules are provided for calculating the thickness of 2:1 ellipsoidal heads in UG-32. UG-32(c) also states that “an acceptable approximation of a 2:1 ellipsoidal head is a torispherical head with a spherical radius of 0.9D and a knuckle radius of 0.17D”. However, calculating the thickness of a torispherical head with those “equivalent” dimensions results in a thicker head. This result is inherently inconsistent, which starts to bring into question the so-called equivalency. Code Case 2260 further perpetuates this equivalency by providing alternative rules for calculating the thickness of torispherical heads, and then permitting the engineer to calculate 2:1 ellipsoidal heads implementing this 90-17 equivalency. Additionally, the calculation methodology for a 2:1 ellipsoidal head in ASME Section VIII, Division 2 uses the torispherical head calculation methodologies and directly implements this 90-17 equivalency. However, this calculation method results, for the same allowable stress basis, in a completely different thickness from the above three methods. This paper reviews the past 90+ years of work on this topic, and presents some theoretical treatment of the different head geometries. A review of the current Code rules is presented, with a comparison of results for several sizes. A survey of head fabricators is presented to show the actual geometries produced for use in ASME pressure vessels. Finally, conclusions regarding whether or not the 2:1 ellipsoidal head is in fact equivalent to the 90-17 torispherical head are presented, and recommendations for future revisions to both ASME Section VIII, Division1 and Division 2 are provided.

Abstract:
The paper shows the calculation of the system by second order theory on elastic supports. At the calculate it adopted a linear relationship of stress-displacement soil. The method of calculating the beams based on rigid and deformed supports was presented by introducing geometric nonlinearity into the calculate. Expressions were performed for the rigidity of the supports in the vertical direction and on the rotation of the foundation, due to the elastic deformation of the soil. Numerical examples show the application of the procedure described. Through diagrams and charts of static and deformation, a comparison of calculate results was made.

Full text
Abstract:
Methods of Spur Gear Root Stress determination were analyzed by comparing an experimentally proven method to documented theoretical methods. The methods evaluated were German DIN standards, AGMA standard, JGMA standard, and Cornell method. The Cornell method was used as a benchmark for comparison of other methods. Each method was used to calculate root stresses in a spur gear system. The gear system variables were torque and rotational speed. Seven different torque settings and four different rotational speeds were used in the analysis, giving 28 different system settings for analysis. The system was modeled using a NASA computer program, Dynamic Analysis of Spur Gear Transmission (DANST) developed by one of the authors. The stresses in the tooth root were calculated from the dynamic forces at 121 points along the involute tooth profile during a two-gear mesh. The study has shown that the stresses calculated using AGMA could predict the stresses calculated using the Cornell method of stress calculation. The JGMA method calculates the maximum root stress of the gear system within three percent of the Cornell method. The study showed that AGMA, and JGMA methods could be as effective at calculating the root stresses as the Cornell method.

Guangxin, He. "A Simplified Model for Unstable Temperature Field Calculation of Gas Turbine Rotor." In ASME 1989 International Gas Turbine and Aeroengine Congress and Exposition. American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 1989. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/89-gt-234.

Full text
Abstract:
Fir-tree roots are usually adopted for rotor blades of gas turbine. Strictly speaking it should be treated as a three-dimensional problem for temperature field calculation of turbine rotor with fir-tree roots. In this paper, a simplified model is presented for calculating the unstable temperature field of a cooled turbine rotor by finite element method. In the simplified model, an outer radius Rb for calculating has been chosen which is smaller than the radius of the fir-tree root groove’s bottom. And an equivalent heat release coefficient α has been introduced. Thus the calculation can be treated as an axial symmetrical problem and carried out on a microcomputer. The simplified model has been used to calculate the unstable temperature field during starting a rotor. The comparison with the three-dimensional calculated result shows that the simplified model is satisfactory. For example, at 170th sec. after firing the temperature difference at the outer radius Rb is only 6% for the two methods.

Full text
Abstract:
In this study, an attempt to calculate the characteristics of gas flow around a projectile during the motion of the projectile in the Joint Actinide Shock Physics Experimental Research (JASPER) light-gas gun is undertaken. The flow is considered as axisymmetric, nonstationary, nonisothermal, compressible, and turbulent. For calculating the flow around the projectile, the finite volume method was employed. A comparison between two launch tube exit geometries was made. The first case was standard muzzle geometry, where the wall of the bore and the outer surface of the launch tube form a 90 degree angle. The second case included a 26.6 degree bevel transition from the wall of the bore to the outer surface of the launch tube. The results of the calculations are represented in figures depicting the flow at different moments of time. The figures show the fields of velocity, pressure and density, as well as the appearance of shock waves inside the geometry. Some comparisons with calculations of the same problem but using finite-element method were made. The obtained results can be further used for optimization JASPER geometry. The results also can be used for calculating the gun barrels for the strength and the oscillatory stability. In our future study we will couple structural analysis of the gun barrel material with the gas dynamic calculation of motion of the projectile in the gun barrel with the use of advanced computational methods.

Kendall, David P. "Comparison of Methods for Calculating Stress Intensity Factors for a Closure Thread." In ASME 2002 Pressure Vessels and Piping Conference. ASMEDC, 2002. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/pvp2002-1161.

Full text
Abstract:
Non-mandatory Appendix D of Section VIII, Division 3 of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code [2] provides a method for calculating the stress intensity factors for the region of a thread root of a threaded closure. This method involves calculation of the distribution of stress acting on a plane normal to the axis of the thread. This distribution is fitted with several different cubic equations for different regions and the coefficients of these cubic equations are entered into an equation to calculate the distribution of stress intensity factor for each region. The values of stress intensity factor for each region after the first one are shifted to obtain a continuous distribution. Neubrand and Burns, 1999 [1] determined the distribution of stress intensity factor for a specific closure thread using weight function methods. In the present paper the stress intensity factors for this same closure design were calculated using the method from Appendix D of Division 3 as described above. Distributions are also calculated using a proposed modification of this method, and also by the method given in Appendix D for cracks in areas of the vessel at which the gradient of the stress distribution is less steep.

Abstract:
Abstract In the design of nuclear power plants, it is demanded to quickly and calculate gamma ray scattering line (streaming) from the penetrating portion provided in the shielding such as electrical cables and ducts. However, when conducting gamma-ray streaming calculations from multiple penetrations, MCNP, a detailed calculation code, requires a long calculation time. This is due to the nature of MCNP, where many particles must reach the evaluation point when calculating in order for the results to be within an acceptable accuracy. To shorten the computation time, an analysis code utilizing a simple calculation method is necessary. Thus, we have developed a new method and a simple calculation tool (SVD-Dorc) for streaming computation. This method combines dose rate at an evaluation point with point kernel integration method and a simple streaming calculation formula for straight cylindrical ducts. Properties of SVD-Dorc are as follows: • Point kernel integration method • Simple streaming calculation formula for straight cylindrical ducts • Manual and automatic meshing of rectangular and cylindrical sources • Differentiation between direct line and non-direct sources • 3D drawing of input data • File output The validity of SVD-Dorc was confirmed by comparison with MCNP calculations and measured values from benchmark tests [2].

Full text
Abstract:
CONSUL code package designed for the calculation of reactor core characteristics has been developed at the beginning of 90-th. The calculation of nuclear reactor core characteristics is carried out on the basis of correlated neutron, isotope and temperature distributions. The code package has been generally used for LWR core characteristics calculations. At present CONSUL code package was adapted to calculate liquid metal fast reactors (LMFR). The comparisons with IAEA computational test “Evaluation of benchmark calculations on a fast power reactor core with near zero sodium void effect” and BN-1800 testing calculations are presented in the paper. The IAEA benchmark core is based on the innovative core concept with sodium plenum above the core BN-800. BN-1800 core is the next development step which is foreseen for the Russian fast reactor concept. The comparison of the operational parameters has shown good agreement and confirms the possibility of CONSUL code package application for LMFR core calculations.
