- The Extrapolated Dimensions Of A Certain Pressurized Water Reactor Are R 67 In And H 144 In The Reactor Operates At 1 (76.45 KiB) Viewed 28 times
The extrapolated dimensions of a certain pressurized water reactor are R = 67 in and Ĥ = 144 in. The reactor operates at the thermal power of 1,893 MW. It contains 193 fuel assemblies, each consisting of 204 UO₂ fuel rods 0.42 in. in diameter. Assuming that the assemblies are uniformly distributed throughout the reactor, calculate the total energy production rate and the maximum energy production rate per ft³ in rods located (a) at the axis of the reactor, (b) 20 in from the axis.
