In this paper we describe the reactor physics simulation capabilities of
the \insilico\ code. A description of the various capabilities of the
code is provided, including detailed discussion of the geometry, meshing,
cross section processing, and neutron transport options. Numerical
results demonstrate that the \insilico\ \SPn\ solver with pin-homogenized
cross section generation is capable of delivering highly accurate
full-core simulation of various PWR problems. Comparison to both
Monte Carlo calculations and measured plant data is provided.
