Xenon calculations for I and E fuel element

Description: This document describes in detail the calculations that are basic to the xenon problem. While much of this work appears elsewhere, herein an attempt has been made to bring it together and make it as understandable as possible. The principle purpose of this document is to calculate the equilibrium xenon poisoning for the I and E geometry fuel element and compare the results to the equilibrium xenon poisoning for the solid geometry fuel element. Further objectives are to provide an understandable… more

105-N charge-discharge rates

Description: Figures have and can be generated that indicate a higher charge-discharge rate if required before 105-N will be comparable with existing reactors. Also, these figures show an apparent operating cost incentive to increase the charge-discharge rates proposed for 105-N. Although these figures may be true by themselves, other figures developed from the same information and stated on a basis that affords a true comparison, show that the proposed rates for 105-N are compatible with those in existing … more
