TransFX  is an advanced three-dimensional particle transport software system that employs fully consistent modeling techniques and transport theory methodologies to solve simple and highly complex eigenvalue, criticality, and radiation physics problems. TransFX is designed for diversified applications in all areas of particle transport applications ranging from simple nuclear fuel pin cell calculations for nuclear power plant analyses to sophisticated energy deposition calculations for the treatment of carcinogenic diseases for medical physics analyses. Using modular programming techniques, the TransFX software establishes the base line for next-generation software systems for the modeling nuclear transport problems ranging from advanced nuclear reactor designs to the human anatomy.

Nuclear Power Industry

In the nuclear power industry, TransFX is designed for modeling current and next-generation reactor designs and design concepts in true two- and three-dimensional geometries. Targeted applications include nuclear fuel assembly analysis, reactor core analysis, fuel burnup analysis, reactor component fluence analysis, criticality analysis, fuel rack analysis, decay heat analysis, and coolant dose rate determinations. TransFX includes advanced features to evaluate highly heterogeneous reactor fuel, reactor core, and reactor component designs of current Generation II reactors and the proposed designs and design concepts of Generation III and Generation IV reactors. TransFX includes the capabilities to evaluate mixed-oxide fuel designs of current-generation reactors, plus the higher burnup, proliferation resistent thorium fuel designs proposed for next-generation reactors.

Nuclear Medicine Industry

In the nuclear medicine industry, TransFX is designed for modeling the effects of high energy non-charged particle beams for the detection and treatment of carcinogenic diseases in the human body. Targeted applications include determining precise localized radiation dose distributions resulting from gamma-ray, x-ray, and boron neutron capture radiation therapy. Accurate estimates of dose distribution in tissue during radiation therapy will provide optimum treatment benefits while minimizing collateral cell damage. The use of a detailed on-line three-dimensional analyses capability coupled with a precise description of a patient's anatomy will provide an effective tool in the treatment for various types of cancer.
