REFLECTED REACTOR KINETICS
The transfer function of a reflected reactor was derived from a model which is applicable to all reactors. The result is identical to a bare reactor transfer function at low frequencies, provided that the neutron lifetime includes the effect of the reflector. At high frequencies the reflector introduces in effect an additional group of delayed neutrons. A calculation of the effective neutron lifetime in the SRE from the theoretical results was in good agreement with the experimental value. (auth)
