We present some general results and specific examples on the dependence of the value of the effective multiplication constant keff on the fuel distribution in a nuclear reactor. We approach the problem on a rather general mathematical ground, based on a variational approach which leaves room to add other required constraints, when needed.

Abstract

We present some general results and specific examples on the dependence of the value of the effective multiplication constant keff on the fuel distribution in a nuclear reactor. We approach the problem on a rather general mathematical ground, based on a variational approach which leaves room to add other required constraints, when needed.
