Les deux approximations […] nécessitent la présence dans les codes de calcul de cœur de sous-programmes capables : — d’une part, de mettre à jour les données relatives aux compositions isotopiques du combustible nucléaire afin d’y intégrer les effets de la production d’énergie. Il s’agit là, en général, de sous-programmes dits de calcul d’évolution qui, à l’aide de formulations analytiques, ou, plus souvent, de méthodes de résolution matricielles, résolvent, par node, les équations d’évolution des nuclides sous une forme simplifiée. 1, record 1, French, - sous%2Dprogramme%20de%20calcul%20d%26rsquo%3B%C3%A9volution
