The article presents the use of the new Monte Carlo Serpent code for 3D modeling of the WWER-1000 reactor core. Core models for the first loading of RNPP4 and the 28th loading of SUNPP3, the fuel assemblies’ models of different manufacturers were developed and presented. Considerable attention was p...
