A NYQUIST CRITERION FOR SPATIAL XENON STABILITY

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4808084
Presented at American Nuclear Society Winter Meeting, December 1960, San Francisco. A method of predicting reactor stability against Xe oscillations is described in which the coolant density feedback and pointwise variation of Xe dynamics are taken into account. The method was found to be computationally feasible, and the results are presented in a form usable as a designing tool for stability. (J.R.D.)
