Through the coupling of the Monte Carlo method and the characteristic method, the Monte Carlo method is adopted at a radiation source area complex in geometry for simulation and the non-uniform amendatory characteristic line method is adopted in a shield layer area simple in geometry for simulation to obtain distribution result of radiating particle flux in the shield layer, wherein the Monte Carlo method has the advantages of being capable of accurately simulating the transporting process of particles in multi-dimensional complex geometry, and the characteristic line method has the advantages of being small in limit to calculation models, fast in calculation speed, free of ray effect, and capable of obtaining high-accuracy calculation results. Compared with a traditional shielding calculation method, the radiation shield calculation method based on the coupling of the Monte Carlo method and the characteristic line method are capable of penetrating a shield area deeply to obtain better geometry adaptability, higher calculation efficiency and more accurate calculation accuracy.

Problems solved by technology

[0003] The advantage of the Monte Carlo method is that it can more realistically describe the characteristics and processes of things with random properties, and has small restrictions on geometry and materials, and can accurately simulate complex materials and particle transport problems under complex geometries; its disadvantage is that The calculation is time-consuming and the convergence speed is slow. In particle transport problems, the calculation results are related to the size of the system. For the calculation problems of large systems or small probability events, the calculation results are often lower than the real value, especially for large nuclear installations. When shielding calculations, it is easy to produce deep penetration effects and cannot obtain accurate calculation results

The biggest advantage of the deterministic method is that the calculation convergence s
