1-D 2-G Neutron Diffusion Solver
To run this solver you must have MathCad or the MathCad explorer installed on your computer.

The solver numerically solves the neutron diffusion equation in one dimension and two energy groups. The solver can work in slab, semicylindrical and spherical geometries. It also allows defining multiple regions, which allows for example simulating fuel, moderator and reflector regions each with its own material properties.
