Quickstart

This quickstart should take 5-10 minutes to complete, starting with a clean slate and ending with a simple UOX ORIGEN reactor library.

Note

By default OLM logs info, warning, and errors to the screen. To only output warnings and errors set the SCALE_LOG_LEVEL=30.

# Initialize a configuration file for the uox_quick variant.
$ olm init --variant uox_quick

# Create an ORIGEN library.
$ olm create -j6 uox_quick/config.olm.json

# Open the generated report.
$ open uox_quick/_work/uox_quick.pdf

---

Executing the above commands will allow one to run ORIGAMI with the newly created library as shown below.

end

fuelcomp{
	uox(fuel){ enrich=4.95 }
	mix(1){ comps[fuel=100] }
}

modz = [ 0.74 ]
pz = [ 1.0 ]

hist[
  cycle{ power=40 burn=1000 nlib=10 }
]

end

# Allow the local library to be found by olm link.
$ export SCALE_OLM_PATH=$PWD/uox_quick/_work

# Run the ORIGAMI calculation.
$ $SCALE_DIR/bin/scalerte -m origami.inp

Note

Generating a ORIGEN reactor library as shown here requires SCALE 6.3.2 and later. Using a UOX ORIGEN reactor library in ORIGAMI as shown here only requires SCALE 6.2.4 at minimum. However, using a MOX ORIGEN reactor library in ORIGAMI requires SCALE 7.0.
