Abstract:

The initial refueling of the MH-1A STURGIS took place in October 1969. The report discusses the nuclear behavior of the reactor during refueling, and explains how the monitoring of this behavior was affected by orientation and locations of core components with respect to the source range instrumentation. Various figures and tables are used to illustrate the measured nuclear behavior.
