Abstract  The values of effective breeding coefficient Keff in a reactor core of nuclear power plant are calculated for different values of parameters (core structure, fuel assembly component) by using the Monte Carlo method. The obtained values of Keff are compared and analysed, which can provide theoretical basis for reactor design.
Keywords:  Monte Carlo method      reactor core parameter      effective breeding coefficient Keff
