Abstract

Abstract

T Without any auxiliary heating source, the core is heated by means of main helium circulator and nuclear power no more than 500kW and temperature coefficient of HTR-10 has been measured. Reactivity change caused by temperature rise from 45.48℃ to 236.93℃ is obtained with cycle method. Measured results are evaluated by physical calculation, and calculated values agree well with the measured values when there no effect of xenon poison and temperature distribution.
