Description

The latest version of Japanese Evaluated Nuclear Data Library, JENDL-5, is planned to be released in 2021. To this end, we have performed integral tests of preliminary versions of JENDL-5 since 2018. In this presentation, we show the integral test results of JENDL-5 beta 3 update 1 for critical and shielding experiments. The critical test calculations have been done for experiments mainly in the International Criticality Safety Benchmark Evaluation Project (ICSBEP) handbook and conducted at JAEA. The shielding benchmark tests have been done mainly for FNS experiments at JAEA and OKTAVIAN experiments. We have confirmed that JENDL-5 beta 3 update 1 gives better than or the same prediction accuracy as the previous version of JENDL-4.0 in many test cases for the critical and shielding experiments.
