Total. C.I. . and. C.R. are. found. in. Figure 10.3.. The. dotted. circles. show. the.

maximum.pair.values.with.multiplications.in.Figure 10.4(a),.accompanied.by.
the.reactor.number.for.maximum.pair.values.in.Figure 10.4(b)..The.range.of.
secure.operation.is.between.0.486635.in.year.20.and.0.327661.in.year.53.dur-
ing.the.life.cycle.of.60.years..The.highest.value.in.the.range.of.secure.power.

study..The.highest.and.lowest.values.are.seen.as.dotted.circles.in.the.igure,.

The. value. of. the. Cobb-Douglas. function. is. described. by. NPF. values. in.
Figure 10.5.. The. maximum. value. is. 0.642836. and. the. minimum. value. is.
0.0932656;. both. cases. are. for. Rx#5.. Therefore,. the. highest. value. for. secure.

10.4 Conclusions
The.AHP.method.incorporated.with.the.NPF.has.been.studied.for.the.secure.
operation. of. NPPs.. Nuclear. fuel. behavior. is. investigated. with. respect. to.
nanoscale.nuclear.fuel.behavior..As.time.goes.on,.the.maximum.pair.values.
with.multiplications.in.AHP.tend.to.change..It.is.reasonable.to.use.the.Monte.
Carlo.method.of.random.sampling.in.the.relative.outputs.due.to.the.many.
uncertainties.in.safeguard.matters..In.the.AHP.method,.the.oscillations.of.
the.values.increase;.the.values.of.NPF.in.the.Cobb-Douglas.function.increase.
steadily..Although.the.reactors.in.AHP.are.changeable.by.the.ive.types,.to.
control.the.multifactor.comparisons.of.nuclear.fuel.lows,.the.reactors.in.NPF.
are.just.Rx#.3,.4,.and.5,.which.are.seen.in.the.dotted.circles.in.Figure 10.5..
