The analysis of the Zero-Energy Experiments performed on the Dragon reactor, a high-temperature reactor of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, has been continued. The first analysis established the main route of calculations within the WIMS-E scheme and was reported elsewhere. This Note presents further calculations showing the merits of a refinement in the number of neutron energy groups, of the use of different condensation spectra, and of transport calculations.
