Abstract
⺠Electrical model of the natural circulation BWR (NCBWR) is developed. ⺠The core processes are modeled with the reduced model. ⺠Reactivity due to Doppler effect, void fraction and control rod is considered. ⺠Predictions in steady state are compared with behavior of the power as a function of an ESBWR core flow. ⺠The results show excellent agreement.
