A fuel assembly has a constitution in which plural fuel rods are arranged in 10 rows by 10 columns in a channel box, and includes plural fuel rods G containing gadolinium and plural partial length fuel rods P. In the fuel assembly, average enrichment of lower portion cross section is approximately 4.6 wt %, and average enrichment of upper portion cross section is approximately 4.7 wt %. The average enrichments at the outermost layer are approximately 5.6 wt % both in the upper portion and the lower portion. Ratios e/x of the average enrichment of the outermost layer e (wt %) to the average enrichment of the fuel assembly cross section x (wt %) are 1.19 in the upper portion and 1.22 in the lower portion, and the ratios satisfy equation (1). [ Equation 1 ] e x ≥ - 18.3 ( x 10 ) 5 + 68.766 ( x 10 ) 4 - 101.77 ( x 10 ) 3 + 74.428 ( x 10 ) 2 - 27.372 ( x 10 ) + 5.1682 ( 1 )

An method for operating a nuclear power generation plant, comprising the steps of: forming a plurality of control rod patterns by operating a plurality of control rods during a first period of one operation cycle of a reactor including said first period before a point of time when all control rods are completely withdrawn from a core of said reactor and a core flow rate reaches firstly a set core flow rate, and a second period after said point of time, controlling stepwise at least once a temperature of feed water supplied to said reactor based on a different set feed water temperature during a period included in said first period for operating said reactor with a formed same control rod pattern, and continuing feed water temperature control based on said set feed water temperature until said core flow rate reaches a set core flow rate set based on said set feed water temperature.

In a nuclear power plant, thermal power in a second operation cycle of a nuclear reactor is uprated from thermal power in a first operation cycle preceding the second operation cycle by at least one operation cycle. A proportion of steam extracted from a steam system and introduced to a feedwater heater, which is in particular extracted from an intermediate point and an outlet of a high pressure turbine, with respect to a flow rate of main steam, is reduced in the second operation cycle from that in the first operation cycle such that the temperature of feedwater discharged from the feedwater heater is lowered by 1° C. to 40° C. in the second operation cycle.

The natural circulation type boiling water reactor comprises a core in which a plurality of fuel assemblies are loaded, and a chimney which is disposed above the core and has a path partition which forms a plurality of vertical lattice paths. A uniform pressure space is formed between the core and the chimney and not disposed the path partition. The two-phase flow including the cooling water and the steam exhausted from the core through the uniform pressure space is supplied to the vertical lattice paths. The two-phase flow ascends in the vertical lattice paths. Thus, the flow distribution for each fuel assembly can be calculated using the pressure difference between the upper end and the lower end of the core can be calculated without the need for the void fraction of the lattice paths.
