The burn-up after the transfer of the fuel rods from the axis to the perimeter of a reactor of finite height is calculated. The discrete transfer pattern through a continuous passage of the fuel was approximated. The one-group theory was used. It was assumed that k, is linearly dependent on the thermal neutron flux. Expressions for the maximum and mean burn-up depth and estimations of the neutron flux inhomogeneities to be expected are derived.
