The results of calculations of radiation streaming through channels and gaps in the OTR reactor are presented. The discrete ordinates Sn method was used for two-dimensional analysis with the DOT3 code with 166/131 and 100/65 forward angle quadratures and the multigroup constant DLC-21 library. The analytical results are compared with previous data for the Fusion Experimental Reactor.
