Abstract

The report deals with the results of simulating the experimental studies of the reactor plant behaviour and the core characteristics in the xenon transients caused by a small and large decrease in the reactor power and also a small increase thereof. The experimental studies were performed in the end of burn-up (T??? ? 244 eff. days) of the first fuel loading at Kalinin NPP, Unit 3. A comparative analysis of the testing data and the results of neutron- physical calculations was made with the use of code package SAPFIR_95 & RC.
