We have proposed a very simple xenon oscillation control procedure for axial xenon oscillation control based on a characteristic trajectory. The trajectory is drawn by three offsets of power distributions, namely, AOp, AOi, and AOx, which are defined as the axial offset (AO) of power distribution, AO of power distribution under which the current iodine distribution is obtained as the equilibrium, and that for xenon distribution, respectively. When these offsets are plotted on the X-Y plane for (AOp−AOx, AOi−AOx) the trajectory shows a quite characteristic ellipse (or an elliptic spiral). When the plot is at the origin of the X-Y plane, no xenon oscillation exists. Using the characteristics of the ellipse, the xenon oscillation can be eliminated by guiding the plot to the origin with control rod operation. In this paper, we will present an innovative and very simple procedure to generate the trajectory for the prediction of the oscillation behavior. Using the prediction capability of the xenon oscillation, the optimal control search calculation can be done. Since it is calculated by simple trigonometric functions and an exponential function, the prediction takes less than 1 s with a PC. It is especially effective for radial xenon oscillation control when the control rod motion is not flexible as for axial xenon oscillation control.
