Abstract

The first kind of Chebyshev polynomials are used for the series expansion of the neutron angular flux in neutron transport theory. The first order approximation known as the diffusion approximation is applied to one-dimensional neutron transport equation to determine the diffusion coefficients of one-speed neutrons for selected values of the scattering parameters

Abstract

Nötron transport teorisinde açısal akının seri açılımı için I. Tip Chebyshev polinomları kullanıldı. Tek hızlı nötronların difüzyon katsayılarını belirlemek için difüzyon yaklaşımı olarak bilinen ilk mertebe yaklaşımı saçılma parametrelerinin seçilen değerleri için tek boyutlu nötron transport denklemine uygulanmıştır.
