Which mechanism causes neutron multiplication in a fuel rod that exceeds its design enrichment limit?

💡 Explanation

If the design enrichment for a fission reaction within fuel rods is exceeded, enhanced chain reaction propagation occurs because fissile material density increases neutron flux, therefore initiating supercriticality rather than controlled power output due to moderation reduction.
