Question
Transcribed Image Text:Civil Engineering
1. Consider a reactor operating at 50% power with
Tave = 572°F.
Assume the following:
1. A fuel temperature coefficient of afuel = -1.5
pcm/%power, and
2. A moderator temperature coefficient of am = -10
pcm/°F
Part A:
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.
Part B:
Assume that the nominal full power Tave is 587°F
and that the nominal full power steam pressure is
1000 psig.
Calculate the steam pressure that results from the
transient in part A.
