        Abstract:
        This report describes the MCNP calculations that have been performed forthe Helium Cooled Pebble Bed (HCPB) Submodules In-pile Test that has been
planned for irradiation in the materials testing High Flux Reactor (HFR) at
Petten. In this test, four HSM-8 submodules will be placed at core position
H4. The report presents the neutron flux and power density profiles to be
expected in the submodules. For the gamma induced heating only a rough
estimation could be made. In the HCPB submodules the total specific heating
does not exceed (36.7 #+# 2.9)[W/cc]. 8 refs.
