TL;DRAbstract

power of 530 Mw. This represents the fastest intentional power excursion of any thermal reactor. The reactivity released is more than twice that which any other has withstood without damage. The maximum pressure in the system for this transient was a sharp pressure peak of 370 psia. This pressure is well below that required to cause yield of a typical water boller core. (A.C.)
