A Homogeneous High Temperature Power Pile Utilizing Graphite Which Has Been Impregnated With Uranium

Thermal reactors that have a significant fraction of fissioning occurring just above thermal energies are studied. First, the thermal neutron diffusion equation is corrected for fast fission effects. The resulting diffusion equation is shown to be equivalent to the Fermi Age equation corresponding to the same physical assumptions. Next, the one delayed neutron group kinetic equations for the corrected thermal flux are given, and the life time of the thermal neutron is corrected by the average slowing down time. (auth)
