In this paper, stability-equation method is applied to the analysis of a large coupled-core reactor control system having multiple nonlinearities and adjustable parameters. The characteristics of the limit-cycle and the asymptotically stable regions can be easily defined in a parameter plane. A numerical example is given and comparisons with other methods in current literature are made.
