Core follow analysis for Yonggwang unit 3 cycle 1

Description

This paper presents the results of the core follow analysis for Yonggwang Unit 3 Cycle 1. The values of peaking factors (Fxy, Fq, Fr and Fz) and core power distributions measured and processed by CECOR code are compared with those predicted by ROCS code. The measured boron rundown is also compared with the predicted values. As results, the comparisons of peaking factors, radial and axial power distributions and boron rundown between the measured and the predicted show good agreement throughout the cycle. Additionally, assembly burnup differences between CECOR and ROCS at EOCI (13650 MWD/MTU) are within 5% of core average burnup
