The AER Benchmark Book (Release 1) comprises info files README1st.doc and PREAMBLE.doc and test descriptions and solutions. All files are readable either by WORD97 (extension: doc), or are ASCII text files (extension: txt), PDF files or compressed files (extension: arj or zip). The AER Benchmark Book (Release 1) contains test cases to be used in the validation and verification process of VVER-type reactors. Furthermore, it contains solutions to the test cases. Detailed list of the test cases is available in Preamble.doc Test cases are given in the following files: 1, Preamble.doc (Title page and introduction) 2, DYN001.doc Dynamics benchmark No.1 3, DYN002.doc Dynamics benchmark No. 2 4, DYN003.doc Dynamics benchmark No. 3 5,DYN004.doc Dynamics benchmark No. 4 6,DYN005.doc Dynamics benchmark No. 5 7,FCM001.doc VVER-440 core, 30 deg 8,FCM002.doc VVER-440 core, 180 deg 9,FCM101.doc VVER-1000 core, 30 deg 10,FCM102.doc VVER-1000 core, 30 deg 11,BCR001.doc Burnup credit 12,TRO001.doc Load follow test 13,KAB001.doc Assembly Burnup 14,HOM001.doc VVER-1000 Assembly Homogenization/Dehomogenization Solutions are given in the following files: DYN001_solkab.doc Solution sheet to DYN001 by DYN3, KAB Germany DYN001A_solkab.txt Solution to DYN001/A by DYN3, KAB Germany DYN001_solaeki.doc Solution sheet to DYN001 by KIKO3D, AEKI Hungary DYN001A_solaeki.txt Solution to DYN001/A by KIKO3D, AEKI Hungary DYN001B_solaeki.txt Solution to DYN001/B by KIKO3D, AEKI Hungary DYN001_solfzr.doc Solution sheet to DYN001 by DYN3, FZR Germany DYN001A_solfzr.txt Solution to DYN001/A by DYN3, FZR Germany DYN001B_solfzr.txt Solution to DYN001/B by DYN3, FZR Germany DYN002_solaeki.doc Solution sheet to DYN002 by KIKO3D, AEKI Hungary DYN002_solaeki.txt Solution to DYN002 by KIKO3D, AEKI Hungary DYN002_solfzr.doc Solution sheet to DYN002 by DYN3, FZR Germany .txt missing?
