A combined method for evaluating the resonance self shielding effect in a two-dimensional power fast reactor fuel assembly is proposed. This method uses the sub-group method to evaluate the self shielding effect of heterogeneous cell and collision probability method in the ultra-fine energy groups to deal with the resonance interference effect between different resonant nuclides.In the present paper, a comparison between the table look-up method and the sub-group method is carried out and it is shown that the latter is superior to the former in a view of evaluating the resonance self shielding effect. These methods have a common defect that it is impossible to treat the resonance interference effect between different resonant nuclides. It can be overcome by using “a correction factor of the resonance interference effect” obtained by the collision probability calculation in the ultra-fine energy groups in a single fuel pin cell model. The microscopic effective cross section obtained by this proposed method agrees well with that by continuous energy Monte Carlo code within 5% relative difference above 100 eV. The k∞ value is affected about 0.1%Δk⁄k by the use of the correction factor.
