Problem with openmc.openmoc_compatible in hexagonal lattice conversion

User Support

Greeting,

I want to compare the result calculated from openmc with openmoc which using the method of characteristic to calculate. but I am having a problem using openmc.openmoc_compatible function to convert my geometry programmed in openmc which includes many hexagonal lattices to the openmoc. But It said

Unable to set “openmc_lattice” to “HexLattice” which is not of type “RectLattice”.

Does anyone have any suggestions on my problem? and
Is there any way to convert or create the hexagonal lattice in openmoc ?
Thank you.

Hi @Sivakorn.SSW and sorry for delayed response here. As far as I’m aware, OpenMOC does not support hexagonal lattices, so the only way I could see this happening is if you manually created cells with the six sides of a hexagon to mimic a lattice.
