1.during.the.one-month.refueling.period.in.every.18.months.(see.Figure 11.6)..
This.value.is.converted.to.0.for.the.refueling.factor.(RF),.so.the.random.sam-
pling.is.done.as.0.0.in.the.power.production.calculation..This.means.that.the.
possibility.of.successful.operation.is.very.poor.when.refueling.is.performed.
because.of.the.possibility.of.fuel.theft.and.other.issues..Hence,.the.effect.of.this.
value.on.the.operation.success.is.going.to.be.negative.
