Description

The heat-measurement method is adopted to measure the decay heat of a nuclear reactor during 45.0 hours after the rated power operation of 75.0 hours; an empirical formula is fitted according to the experimental data. Several calculation empirical formulas used to calculate the residual power of a nuclear reactor and comparison with the test result indicated that the heat-measurement method could be used to measure the decay heat of a reactor, and the data is conformed to the standard of EJ/T 745.
