  • Abstract
    An algorithm is developed to determine optimum core loading patterns for a pressurized water reactor burnup cycle. The best locations of fuel assemblies are searched by simulated annealing. The optimum placement of burnable absorbers for any stochastically generated fuel loading pattern is determined using successive linear programming. Two-dimensional time-dependent problems are considered for numerical study.
