A series of reactor frequency response measurements, relating flux or power level to a reactivity input function, were made to evaluate reactor stability for different values of power parameters. These parameters included: power level, steam pressure, and control rod position. The results were extrapolated to predict EBWR stability at higher operating powers. The experimental data may also be used to evaluate the thermodynamic and hydraulic constants. (authl
