Sumario:TENDL evaluate files have been processed with NJOY and different libraries have been created and processed by the deterministic code DRAGON. The aim of this process is obtain hundreds of burnups calculation that has been used to evaluate the uncertainty using the Monte Carlo approach. TENDL library have been analyzed and compared with other libraries (as JENDL or SCALE). Finally, results for the most important isotopes (235U, 238U, 239Pu) for the PWR Burnup Pin-Cell Benchmark UAM-I are presented using this method.
