A Parametric Study of a Gas Cooled Reactor

Description: The results of a parametric study on a gas cooled reactor are reported on herein. The system considered was a helium cooled, UO2 fueled arrangement with the fuel assemblies consisting of clusters of long cylindrical elements, each element covered b a stainless steel jacket. The axial power distribution was assumed to be a "chopped cosine" having an axial peak-to-average power 1.32.
