A reactor operating at 50% power with Tave = 572 F, fuel temperature coefficient of -1.5 pcm/%power,
Fantastic news! We've Found the answer you've been seeking!
Question:
A reactor operating at 50% power with Tave = 572F, fuel temperature coefficient of -1.5 pcm/%power, and a moderator temperature coefficient of -10 pcm/F.
1. Reactor power is increased to 75% by opening the turbine control valves. Assume no rod motion and no change in boron concentration. Calculate the resulting Tave when the reactor is in steady-state conditions at 75% power.
2. Assume that the nominal full power Tave is 587F and that the nominal full power steam pressure is 1000 psig. Calculate the steam pressure that results from the transient in part 1.
