“…At each time step, a Gauss-Seidel iteration is used on the energy groups and the spatial discretization is done with RT-1 finite elements (see [4]). The geometry and history that have been chosen for the simulation is the so called TWIGL benchmark that represents a rod withdrawal (see [8]).…”

“…This method could be applied to SP N approximation, but is presently limited to the diffusion model and to Cartesian grids. It has been implemented in the framework of the existing MINOS solver, 27) which uses a mixed dual finite element method for the resolution of diffusion equation in 3D Cartesian homogenized geometries.…”

The aim of this paper is to present some major HPC challenges for deterministic neutronics simulations and how these challenges are addressed in the APOLLO3 ® code. Different levels of HPC are illustrated on different kind of applications and parallel paradigms techniques in the frame of the APOLLO3 ® code. Results obtained for fuel load management using genetic algorithm, domain decomposition for transport solvers, GPU acceleration for the Boltzmann equation solution are given using from few cores to massively parallel computing using more than 10,000 cores.
