Abstract
Researches are done to improve parameters of nuclear reactors and reduce the cost of generated electricity directed towards determining of the most rational fuel usage. Different methods use different mathematical and physical models that results in some differences in received data. One of the methods is profiling of Nuclear Energy Reactors. In this paper the theory that is used in modeling and tallies in Serpent 2 is given, the methods of axial profiling of reactors are shown, comparison of received data and justification of their validity on intermediate state of the research are examined.
