N2 - An in-core transmutation analysis and evaluation code, named CATE, considering in-core fine flux calculation and fine depletion process, is verified and validated in the present paper. Verification and Validation of implementations for the OECD/NEA PWR cell benchmark for actinides transmutation, IAEA PWR benchmark and infinite homogenized plate problem to confirm reliability and numerical accuracy for the code have been performed in presented paper. The numerical performance of the code system is demonstrated in the analyses of the in-core fuel management calculation. It is found that the present code system gives stability in prediction of critical concentration of boric solution and radial power distribution. Based on the verifications and validations, a preliminary LLFP transmutation pattern is calculated. Numerical results indicate that CATE can be used not only for the fuel management calculation, but also for in-core transmutation evaluation of PWR.
