Description

Global variance reduction method based on volume and non-counting area correction
Technical Field
The invention relates to a nuclear radiation environment numerical simulation calculation method, in particular to a global variance reduction method based on volume and non-counting area correction.
Background
In the research of radiation environment of nuclear facilities and plants, nuclear radiation environment in early stage of nuclear explosion, nuclear electromagnetic pulse environment, personnel radiation dosimetry and the like, the overall distribution of a spatial radiation field is often required to be calculated. The global solution of the radiation field usually adopts a monte carlo method, and the distribution information of the radiation field is obtained by simulating statistics and calculation of a large number of simulated particle transport processes. When the calculation error of the radiation field obtained by direct simulation is large, a corresponding variance reduction method is often needed to improve the overall calculation accuracy and efficiency of the radiation field. Conventional local variance subtraction methods are generally only targeted at specific targets or detectors and it is difficult to give a reasonably reliable full spatial distribution of the radiation field. In contrast, the global variance reduction method is more suitable for full-space solution of the radiation field.
The global variance reduction method controls the distribution of global simulation particles through a global weight window, increases the number of simulation particles in a lower limit area of a low weight window, and enables the relative deviation of simulation results to be reduced as much as possible along with the distribution of space, thereby integrally improving the calculation efficiency in the global space. Davis and t.andrew, "composition of global variation reduction processes for Monte Carlo radiation transfer relationships of ITER", published in Fusion Engineering and Design journal 2011, volume 86, phase 9, adopt a global variance reduction method based on Monte Carlo forward calculation, obtain simulated particle distribution information such as simulated particle flux, quantity and weight through Monte Carlo simulation calculation, and are used for generating a grid/grid-based global weight window parameter, and carry out Monte Carlo simulation by using the global weight window parameter, and loop iteration is carried out until convergence. The method is widely applied to global radiation field calculation. Zheng et al published in journal of atomic energy science and technology, Vol 53, No 6, journal of 2018, "HBR-2 benchmark topic application of Global variance reduction method" applied it to a nuclear reactor device. Neixian et al, applied to Tokamak apparatus, in "Global variation reduction method for Global monkey particle transport relationships of CFETR", published in Nuclear Science and Techniques, journal, vol.115, No. 8, 2017, volume 8. Wang scholan et al published in journal of Nuclear Power engineering 2019, volume 40, phase 5, "simulation of radiation environment under severe accident of heavy Water reactor nuclear Power plant" and applied it to nuclear Power plants.
In some radiation field full-space solving problems with large space scale span and strong scattering outside a counting area, such as global calculation of a km-level early nuclear radiation environment, a series of problems are faced by directly adopting the existing global variance reduction method. One is that the existing global variance reduction method is applicable to equal-volume cells/grids, and guides the simulated particles to be transported to the global space of the model, so that the simulated particles are distributed uniformly in the full-space range, and the relative errors are relatively uniform in the full-space range. When the volume difference of the counting cells/grids in the radiation field is large, the number of analog particles in the large-volume cells/grids is large, the number of analog particles in the small-volume cells/grids is small, so that the analog relative errors are not uniformly distributed in the cells/grids, and the overall calculation precision and efficiency are reduced. The other is that the non-counting area near the calculation boundary occupies more calculation resources. A radiation field transport calculation model with strong scattering outside a counting area can be generally divided into the counting area and a non-counting area, and simulated particles in the non-counting area can be transported to the counting area to influence the flux calculation of the simulated particles in the counting area. The weight window parameters calculated by the global variance reduction method are uniformly applied to the counting area and the non-counting area, although the calculation accuracy of the counting area is ensured, the simulated particles in the non-counting area (especially in the absorption medium with a larger cross section) are excessively split, and more calculation resources are occupied, so that the calculation efficiency is reduced.

The following is a specific embodiment of the present invention, which is a scenario of global transport calculation of gamma rays in a large spatial radiation field. The method comprises the following specific steps:
the method comprises the following steps: establishing a large-space gamma-ray radiation field transport calculation model
As shown in FIG. 2, the calculation model is a schematic diagram of global transport calculation in a large space gamma-ray radiation field. The transportation calculation model mainly comprises two media of standard atmosphere 2 (air) and earth 1 (namely soil), wherein the density of the standard atmosphere 2 is 1.205 multiplied by 10 - 3 g/cm 3 Soil of earthThe soil density is 2.35g/cm 3 . The mass ratios of C element, N element, O element and Ar element in the air medium are respectively as follows: 0.01%, 75.52%, 23.19% and 1.28%. The mass percentages of the H element, the O element, the Na element, the Mg element, the Al element, the Si element, the K element, the Ca element and the Fe element in the soil medium are respectively 0.6%, 49.9%, 1.7%, 0.3%, 4.6%, 31.5%, 1.9%, 8.3% and 1.2%. The height of a flux counting area of the gamma-ray transport calculation model is set to be 0-1 km, and the flux counting area is within a range of 5km from the center of a gamma radiation source 3 (a central area in figure 2). The required counting physical quantity is set to the gamma flux in the counting area. Since soil and air outside the counting area have strong scattering effect on gamma rays, a non-counting area should be established outside the counting area. Therefore, the maximum height of the transportation calculation model is 2km (namely the total height of the counting area and the non-counting area), the maximum distance from the horizontal direction of the source center is 6km, and the soil thickness is 1 m.
And (3) carrying out layering treatment on the air and the ground 1 in the transportation calculation model. For air, in the horizontal direction, the number of layers is 60 per 100 m; in the vertical direction, every 100m is divided into 20 layers. For the ground 1, the atmosphere is kept consistent in the horizontal direction, and 60 layers are divided every 100 m; in the vertical direction, every 0.125m is divided into 8 layers. The transportation calculation model is divided into 28 × 60 ═ 1680 cells, the counting area is divided into 10 × 50 ═ 500 counting cells 4, and the non-counting area is divided into 1680-. The gamma radiation source 3 is set to be a point source emitting isotropically, the weight of the gamma radiation source 3 is 1, the watt balance fission spectrum is taken as the energy spectrum of the gamma radiation source 3, the time of the gamma radiation source 3 is 0, the gamma radiation source 3 is positioned at the horizontal center of the model, and the height from the ground is 20 m.
Step two: tracking simulated particle transport process by adopting Monte Carlo method
And (4) counting, calculating and transporting the particle flux information in all cells in the overall space of the calculation model. As shown in fig. 3, the distribution of the gamma flux errors in the counting area obtained by direct simulation is given, and as can be seen from fig. 3, the gamma flux errors are large, especially the gamma flux errors of more than 4km horizontally are mostly greater than 37.5%, and the result is not reliable.
Step three: weight window parameter given by global variance reduction method calculated according to particle flux information
According to the distribution situation of particle flux information in the grid cells, the lower limit of a weight window of a global variance reduction method based on the particle flux in the particle information is calculated as follows:
Figure BDA0003703128030000081
wherein phi is i For the particle flux information in the ith cell, Max (phi) i ) And the maximum simulated particle average flux in all the cells, wherein beta is the ratio of the upper weight window limit to the lower weight window limit of all the cells, and the upper weight window limit is equal to the lower authority limit multiplied by beta. In this embodiment, β is 5. As shown in fig. 4, the near-ground (non-counting region) intra-cell weight window lower limit calculated by the global variance-reducing method based on volume correction, volume correction and non-counting region correction is given.
Step four: carrying out volume correction on the weight window parameter of the global variance reduction method to obtain the weight window parameter after volume correction
4.1) introduction of volume correction factor
Figure BDA0003703128030000082
Wherein V i Is the volume of the ith cell, V s Is the volume of the cell where the point source of the gamma radiation source 3 is located.
4.2) a large-space gamma radiation field transport calculation model is shown in figure 2; dividing the grid into 60 layers and 28 layers (including counting area and non-counting area) in horizontal (radial) and vertical directions respectively to generate corresponding circular grid cells with non-equal volumes; the cell volume is smallest at the center and largest at the edge in the radial direction. Calculating the volume correction factor f corresponding to the lower limit of the weight window of the cells from the 1 st cell at the center of the cell closest to the ground layer to the 60 th cell at the boundary vol I.e., 1, 3, 5 to 119. The lower limit of the weight window after the volume correction, which is calculated by the global variance reduction method after the volume correction, is the lower limit w of the weight window in the third step th And its volume correction factor f vol The product of the two. As shown in fig. 4, the lower weight window limit after volume correction (i.e., the lower volume correction weight window limit) is given. As shown in fig. 5, a schematic diagram of the distribution of gamma flux errors in the counting region simulated by the volume-corrected global variance reduction method is shown. The gamma flux error calculated after volume correction is much smaller than that directly simulated in fig. 3.
Step five: performing non-counting area correction on the weight window parameter of the global variance reduction method to obtain the corrected weight window parameter of the non-counting area
Correcting the lower limit of the right window in the non-counting area, and setting the lower limit of the right window of the grid cell in the non-counting area as follows:
w th,nonc =w th,n e s/λ (4)
wherein, w th,nonc Is the lower limit of the weight window, w, of the non-counting cell 5 th,n The lower limit of the weight window of the counting cell 4 closest to the non-counting area is s, the distance from the non-counting cell 5 to the counting cell 4 is s, and the average absorption free path of the simulated particles is lambda.
Lower limit of right window w th Decreases rapidly with increasing horizontal distance, without regard to correction of the non-counting area, the lower limit w of the weight window th All the while down to the calculation boundary of 6 km. After considering the correction of the non-counting area, the lower limit w of the right window th Reaches a minimum at 5km and then increases with increasing horizontal distance in the non-counting region, see fig. 4. As shown in FIG. 6, the lower limit w of the weight window obtained by volume correction and non-counting correction is shown th Schematic diagram of the two-dimensional distribution of (a).
Step six: and tracking the transportation process of the simulated particles under the guidance of the weight window according to the weight window parameters after volume correction obtained in the fourth step and the weight window parameters after non-counting area correction (namely the non-counting area correction weight window parameters) obtained in the fifth step, and counting and calculating the flux information of the simulated particles in the grid elements in the whole space of the transportation calculation model.
Step seven: judging whether the error convergence of the particle information results in all grid cells/grids in the overall space of the transport calculation model obtained in the step six meets the preset requirement or not;
if the preset requirement is met, acquiring particle information in all cells/grids in the whole space of the transport calculation model, namely the spatial distribution of a radiation field;
if the preset requirement is not met, executing a step eight;
step eight: and returning to the third step, and simultaneously substituting the particle information in all the cells/grids in the whole space of the transport calculation model obtained in the sixth step into the third step to carry out iterative calculation until the result error convergence meets the preset requirement.
In this embodiment, the simulation sets the CPU total running time to be truncated to 400 minutes, and the result converges after 3 iterations. As shown in fig. 7, the distribution of gamma flux errors in the counting area obtained after three iterations using the global variance reduction method based on volume correction and non-counting area correction is shown. As can be seen from fig. 7, the maximum error of the gamma flux does not exceed 5%, which is significantly smaller than the results of the direct simulation and the simulation based on volume correction given in fig. 3 and 5.
The main simulation parameters obtained with different global variance reduction methods are given in table 1. Wherein FOM G The global quality factor is used for evaluating the quality of the global variance reduction method. FOM G The larger the factor, the more computationally efficient the characterization. As can be seen from table 1, the calculation efficiency of the unmodified global variance reduction method in this embodiment is lower than that of the direct simulation calculation, which indicates that the applicability of the unmodified global variance reduction method in the calculation of the large-space gamma-ray radiation field is poor. FOM calculated by volume-corrected global variance-reducing method G The factor is improved by about 39 times over the direct simulation and the standard deviation based on error is reduced by about two orders of magnitude. After further introduction of non-counting zone correction, FOM G The factor is improved by about 54 times compared to the direct simulation. The average error obtained by simulation after 3 times of iteration convergence is 1.2%, the maximum error is 4.2%, and FOM G Factor 2.58, FOM G The factor is increased by about 561 times compared to the direct simulation. The global variance reduction method based on non-counting area correction can effectively guide the transportation of the simulation particles to ensure that the simulation particles in the cell are reasonably distributed, solve the problems of excessive splitting caused by large volume difference in the cell and excessive calculation resources occupied by the non-counting area, and improve the global calculation precision and efficiency of the radiation field.
