Resumo

Study of temperature distribution in a fuel rod and coolant channel in transient regime. Such study allowed the analysis of the behavior of the fuel rod components and the coolant channel in a situation where there was a lack of energy in the reactor’s coolant pumps and in the diesel engines, resulting in an unplanned shutdown of the reactor
