Control rod calibration simulation using Monte Carlo code for the IRT-type research reactor

•IRT MEPhI and IRT-T are pool-type university-based research reactors.•Full 3-D models for these reactors using MCU-PTR Monte Carlo code are developed.•Validation of the MCU-PTR code against experimental data is performed.•The measured critical cases during the calibration of the control rods are an...
