Shutdown dose rate calculation code system and its application to EAST tokamak

For safe operation and maintenance of nuclear devices, it is very important to predict the dose rate distribution after shutdown. Based on the rigorous two-step (R2S) method, a new shutdown dose rate calculation code system was developed for nuclear devices with large dimension and complex geometries. By coupling the Monte Carlo particle transport calculation code MCNP with the activation simulation code FISPACT, the dose rate calculation codes integrate the functions of neutron transport calculation, activation calculation and decay gamma transport calculation. This code system was applied to the shutdown dose analysis for experimental advanced superconducting tokamak (EAST). Three-dimensional dose rate distributions of the EAST for different cooling times and spatial locations were obtained. The results can be used to assist radiation protection in EAST.
