Which effect changes when heavy water coolant escapes a CANDU reactor core?

💡 Explanation

Reduced heavy water means less deuterium to slow neutrons, therefore a decreased rate of the neutron moderation because it can't transfer energy efficiently, rather than other changes; fuel properties remain consistent.
