Shape reactivity effects it the rod ejection accident. [PWR]

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6312343
;
Detailed three-dimensional MEKIN-B calculations of the PWR control rod ejection accident (REA) are being performed as part of the BNL/NRC evaluation of methods currently used to analyze PWR REA events. A principal objective of these calculations has been to evaluate in three dimensions the effect of flux redistribution on the core transient reactivity and hence on transient core power level.
