Abstract
This work summarizes neutronic calculations performed for the CALORRE differential calorimeter specifically designed by Aix Marseille University to inform the irradiation campaign planning for testing in MITR within the framework of the CALOR-I research program. MCNP software was used to predict the neutron and gamma flux spectrum, and total nuclear heating rate to the components of the calorimeter in a variety of positions. Results were compared to evaluate spatial bias, core loading effects, optimization for axial position, and provide input data for thermal multi-physics modelling.
