Abstract

In raising the power of a nuclear reactor, before the linear heat generating rate of nuclear fuel elements arranged in the core of the nuclear reactor reaches 240 W/cm, the power rise of the reactor is suspended at least once and the reactor power is held at the fixed level. The raise of the power of the nuclear reactor before the arrival of the linear heat generating rate at 240 W/cm is performed by pulling out control rods inserted into the core. When the linear heat generating rate exceeds 240 W/cm, the power of the nuclear reactor is gradually raised in such a way that the linear heat generating rate is increased in a proportion of below about 1.8 W/cm/hour by increasing the flow rate of a coolant supplied to the core.
