ANUBIS is a deterministic calculation scheme, based on the 2D transport code APOLLO2 and the 3D-diffusion code CRONOS2, developed for the simulation of the OSIRIS Material Testing Reactor (CEA-Saclay Center). To enhance the tool performances, several improvements have been implemented in the version 3 ANUBIS V3, in particular for the cross sections library generation using a 2D full core transport computation to feed the 3D diffusion calculation. ANUBIS V3 has been validated against TRIPOLI-4 Monte Carlo calculations and experimental results.
