The uncertainties due to nuclear data are calculated for existing PWR and BWR fuel assemblies (with burn-up up to 40 GWd/tHM, followed by 10 years of cooling time) and for a simplified PWR full core model (without burn-up) for quantities such as k ∞ , macroscopic cross sections, pin power or isotope inventory.

The outcome of such a study is a comparison of uncertainties with two consequences.
