Neutronic Analysis For Nuclear Reactor Systems

More about the book

Focusing on nuclear reactor theory, this expanded edition covers the journey from fission fundamentals to the intricacies of modern reactor operations. It begins with criticality analysis and progresses from simplified one-group diffusion models to advanced multi-group transport theory. The latter half addresses reactor kinetics, dynamics, and in-core fuel management. Updated chapters incorporate contemporary computer codes and include detailed models, data sets, and example problems, making it an essential resource for students and researchers interested in nuclear power's role in today's energy landscape.
