Patent abstract
A method of calculating and using a constraint for fuel rods is provided. The method may utilize pin nodal exposures and pin nodal powers to obtain the constraint, calculate rod average exposures and rod average powers (kW/ft) in each fuel assembly, and develop maps from the calculated rod average exposures and powers (kW/ft) to operate design, optimization, licensing, and/or monitoring applications.
