Axial offset as measure of stability of light water nuclear reactor during capacity maneuvering
Trudy Odesskogo Politehničeskogo Universiteta, 2015 High reliability and security of power unit are required during operation of power unit while maneuvering. They depend on the stability of reactor when transition from one power level to another. The axial offset is a quantitative measure of the reactor
