Description

A comprehensive analysis of routine radiochemistry data obtained at a BWR plant has been performed. The variation of fission product release levels as well as the characteristics of the release pattern were evaluated. The number of defective fuel bundles and the exposures of the defective fuel are correctly predicted from the results of data analyses. (author)
