Lecture
Reactor Technology: Reactivity Variations and Control
Description
This lecture covers reactivity variations in reactors, including short-term variations like reactivity feedbacks, medium-term variations such as Xe135 poisoning, and long-term variations like fuel composition changes with burnup. Means of control are discussed, such as control rods, compensation rods, and soluble poisons. The presentation also delves into the effects of the Doppler effect on fuel temperature and the moderator temperature coefficient.
