Core Follow Analysis for Yonggwang Unit 3 Cycle 1

This paper presents the results of the core follow analysis for Yonggwang Unit 3 Cycle 1. The values of peaking factors (Fxy, Fq, Fr anf Fz) and core power distribution measured and processed by CECOR code［1］ are compared with those predicted by ROCS code［2］, The measured boron rundown is also compared with the predicted values. As results, the comparison of peaking factors, radial and axial power distributions and boron rundown between the measured and the predicted show good agreement throughout the cycle. Additionally, assembly burnup differences between CECOR and ROCS at EOC1 (13650 MWD/MTD are within 5% of core average burnup.
