Abstract
The mathematical structure of the point-reactor kinetic equation coupled with several linear void reactivity feedback models has been analyzed with the center manifold method and bifurcation theory. The analysis indicates that whether or not the BWR power oscillation will eventually reach a limit cycle depends on both the order and properties of the feedback reactivity equation. The coefficient of the damping term in the void equation plays an important role in determining the type of limit cycles.
