Abstract EN

Since its origins in 1976, INVAP has been on continuous development of the calculation system used for design and optimization of nuclear reactors.

The calculation codes have been polished and enhanced with new capabilities as they were needed or useful for the new challenges that the market imposed.

The actual state of the code packages enables INVAP to design nuclear installations with complex geometries using a set of easy-to-use input files that minimize user errors due to confusion or misinterpretation.

A set of intuitive graphic postprocessors have also been developed providing a fast and complete visualization tool for the parameters obtained in the calculations.

The capabilities and general characteristics of this deterministic software package are presented throughout the paper including several examples of its recent application.
