Fluence Point Class

The reactor classes have a couple of helper classes that allow the to function in a more intuitive manner. The first is a simple FluencePoint data structure. This contains information on where one is in the reactor’s fluence vector.

All functionality may be found in the fluence_point module:

import bright.flunece_point

class bright.fluence_point.FluencePoint

This class holds three simple data points that represent a fluence point.

F

Fluence value itself (float). In units of [neutrons/kilobarn], abbr [n/kb].

f

Index (int) of fluence immediately lower than the value of F.

m

The slope (float) dBU/dF between points f and f+1. Has the odd units of [MWd kb / kgIHM n]
