The concept of multi-dimensional heterogeneous resonance integral tables is proposed. The new type of resonance integral is designed for different fuel pins appearing in one lattice with two extra dimension of optical radius and number density ratio in the fuel. Numerical results show that this treatment improves the accuracy of embedded self-shielding method on irregular lattices.
