Which chain reaction effect results in fuel rod cladding failure during coolant loss in a reactor?

💡 Explanation

The void coefficient causes increased reactivity and a power surge following coolant loss because neutron absorption decreases therefore power escalates triggering the positive feedback loop and overheating, rather than immediate stabilization.
