In a pressurized-water fluidized-bed reactor, the core is composed of pellets of UO/sub 2/ in a fluid state. The bed of pellets is expanded by the motion of the coolant to a volume greater than would be occupied if the coolant were stationary. A control system design utilizing the relationship between reactivity and coolant is discussed. An analog study was made to investigate the adequacy and stability of the control system. A heat transfer study and scram system design are described. (W.D. M.)
