The linear components of the power reactivity decrement (PRD) for a heterogeneous loading (run 93A) of Experimental Breeder Reactor II (EBR-II) have been calculated using the EBRPOCO program together with an addition to the program, RODCO, which accounts for effects of axial positionings of control rods. The program calculates detailed axially delineated contributions of the components of the PRD for every subassembly of the reactor configuration. The sum of these contributions is subtracted from the corresponding measured PRD value to give the nonlinear (subassembly-bowing) component.
