Abstract
The use of hot-spot, hot-channel factors to relate system uncertainties and potential system temperatures in reactor design is fairly standard. In this paper a somewhat different approach is discussed. Translating factors are identified for each base variable in the calculation and through statistical regression analysis and error synthesis, procedures are outlined for approximating to the hot-spot temperature and estimating the associated uncertainty in the calculation. The procedures are applied to a typical ETR calculation.
