In this master s dissertation we describe a hybrid direct method for calculating the disadvantage factor and the neutron flux distribution in fuel-moderator lattices. For the mathematical model, we used the discrete ordinates (SN) transport equation, considering linearly anisotropic scattering in the monoenergetic model and isotropic scattering in the energy multigroup model in slab geometry. We describe a spectral analysis of the monoenergetic and two-group SN equations, in a way which is very similar to the Case method. The basic idea is to use higher order angular quadrature set in the highly absorbing fuel region (SNF)and lower order angular quadrature set in the diffusive moderator region (SNM) i.e., NF > NM. Therefore, we apply special continuity conditions for the fuel existing fluxes that constitute the incoming fluxes for the moderator region, and conversely for the moderator existing fluxes that constitute the incoming fluxes for the fuel region, based on the equivalence of the SN and PN-1 equations, which characterize the hybrid model. As a direct hybrid method, we use NF + NM linear algebraic equations composed of (NF + NM)/2 reflexive boundary conditions and (NF + NM)/2 continuity conditions to solve for the NF + NM expansion coefficients. With these coefficients we can calculate the numerical values for the angular fluxes and for the scalar fluxes at any location of domain. We present numerical results to illustrate the efficiency and the accuracy of the offered method.
