Abstract
POW is the diffusion module 'workhorse' of the AUS reactor neu-tronics modular code system; its steady state calculations have been checked out against other diffusion codes (particularly CRAM and GOG). Checkout of kinetic aspects, however, is difficult as kinetic codes are not freely available. In this report POW has been checked against three benchmark calculations as well as a calculation on the 100 kW Argonaut reactor Moata.
