Three-dimensional adjoint transport calculation module was integrated into SN transport code ARES in which automated variance reduction parameters are generated based on consistent adjoint driven importance sampling method to accelerate calculation of MCNP5. It shows that automated variance reduction parameters are effective to improve MC calculational efficiency and to produce unbiased statistical results. Automated variance reduction technique with SN function estimates particle importance more economically and accurately. It avoids obstacles of manual estimation and could be applied for MC simulation of large-scale, complicated shielding problems.
