| Abstract: | The prompt supercritical process of a nuclear reactor with temperature feedback and initial power while inserting large step reactivity (ρ0 > β) is analyzed. The new analytic expressions of reactivity and output power as well as reactor's temperature increase during the course of the prompt supercritical are derived. The maximal power and the related reactivity and time are obtained. The effects of the inserted step reactivity and initial power on the prompt supercritical process are analyzed and discussed. It is found that for considering only the effect of prompt neutron the reactivity, power and temperature vary much more quickly and the power peak value and the increase values of temperature are larger than those for considering the effect of both prompt neutron and delayed neutron. |
