The KEWB program examines the dynamic behavior of homogeneous research reactors. Investigations were made of the effect, on peak power, maximum pressure, and energy release, of the operating parameters; amount of reactivity released; initial core pressure; void volume above the fuel solution; rate of reactivity release; initial power level; and initial fuel temperature. Results are briefly summarized.
