Abstract

A method of synthesizing reactor core power distribution is disclosed. According to the method, the power of all fuel assemblies in a reactor core is calculated from powers of fuel assemblies in which in-core instruments are located using the ordinary kriging methodology. Also, a hot-pin power distribution of each fuel assembly is synthesized from the power of all fuel assemblies calculated, whereby more accurate hot-pin axial power distribution, rather than pseudo hot-pin axial power distribution, may be synthesized.
