ELECTRONIC ANALOG INSTALLATION FOR EXAMINING THE KINETICS OF NUCLEAR REACTORS (ELEKTRONICZNE URZADZENIE ANALOGOWE DO BADANIA KINETYKI REAKTOROW JADROWYCH),

Abstract

The authors give the basic principles of an analog device for solving a system of differential equations describing the behavior of a nuclear reactor with respect to time. Systems of this type are difficult to solve, especially when the reactivity varies with time. The proposed device may be used for solving problems involving six groups of delayed neutrons, or may alternatively be programmed for a simplified equation with a single group of delayed neutrons. The proposed computer may be used in studying high-power reactors where the maximum neutron density in the core may reach 10 to the 15th power n/cu cm.
