TWO DIMENSIONAL DIFFUSION THEORY STUDIES OF CONTROL ROD WORTHS AND FLUX PEAKING IN THE YANKEE REACTOR

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4294927· OSTI ID:4294927
BS> Procedures are discussed for the utilization of a two dimensional diffusion theory computer program (QED) in the calculation of neutron flux peaking and control rod worths. Some typical results obtained for the first Yankee core are presented. Methods for reducing large problems to a size acceptable to the computer program are described. (auth)
