Effect of radial power distribution on MITR-II fuel element and control blade worth

Conference · · Trans. Am. Nucl. Soc.; (United States)
OSTI ID:5065958
This summary has been prepared to document and discuss several effects on fuel element and control blade reactivity worths that occur due to changes in the radial power distribution of the 5-MW(t) Massachusetts Institute of Technology Research Reactor (MITR-II). These results were obtained from reactor physics measurements and core power distribution calculations made during the past decade.
