Introductory Nuclear Reactor Dynamics

This text presents the theory and methods of prediction that are the heart of nuclear reactor safety. Time-dependent reactor behavior is explained in both mathematical and physical terms. This book also explains the logic behind the working formulas and calculational methods for reactor transients and illustrates typical dynamic responses. The classical concept of point kinetics is developed in three steps, with discussion of various solutions to kinetics problems. Each chapter includes homework problems and review questions.Ott, Karl Otto is the author of 'Introductory Nuclear Reactor Dynamics' with ISBN 9780894480294 and ISBN 0894480294.
