← ScienceWhich consequence results when isotopic enrichment exceeds design specifications in MOX fuel?
A)Elevated neutron flux in reactor✓
B)Depletion of control rod effectiveness
C)Increased cladding corrosion rates
D)Reduced thermal conductivity margins
💡 Explanation
Elevated isotopic enrichment causes increased neutron flux because neutron multiplication factor (k) rises via intensified nuclear fission. Therefore the reactor power may destabilize, rather than causing clad corrosion or impacting thermal properties directly.
