Abstract
Studies are made of the stability of a nuclear power source consisting of a water-cooled, water moderated reactor that has a negative temperature coefficient of reactivity, a saturated-steam generator and a turbine. It is assumed that the system has only two regulators, a throttle before the turbine and a constant level device for the boiler water. Single-group kinetic equations are used, taking account of one group of delayed neutrons; the perturbations are assumed small, and non-linear equations are linearized. The stability of the system is discussed.
