Abstract

Given a region occupied by uniformly distributed moderator, it is conjectured that, to achieve a reactor with maximum prompt neutron lifetime, the fuel should be distributed uniformly throughout the region. This conjecture is shown to be valid for a large class of thermal reactors which can be described by a multigroup diffusion model.
