Abstract
The purpose of this calculation is to document the Three Mile Island Unit 1 pressurized water reactor {PWR) reactivity calculations performed as part o f the commercial reactor critical (CRC) evaluation program. CRC evaluation reactivity calculations are performed at a number of statepoints, representing reactor start-up critical conditions at either beginning of life (BOL), beginning of cycle (BOC), or mid- cycle when the reactor resumed operation after a shutdown. The CRC evaluations support the development and validation of the neutronics models used for criticality analyses involving commercial spent nuclear fuel in a geologic repository.
