APPR-1 BURNOUT CALCULATIONS
A general non-uniform burnup program was developed to determine the lifetime of the APPR-1. The calculation is performed using two one dimensional multi-region burnout calculations. The approach to the problem, the equations, and derivation of burnout equations are presented. The results are plotted and compared with the rod bank position as measured at Fort Belvoir. On the basis of these calculations the expected total energy release of the APR-1 is 13 Mw-yr. (auth)
