A method described in a previous article for synthesizing three-dimensional flux distributions is here extended to reactor kinetics problems and to lifetime studies. The method is outlined and some numerical examples presented. The results of these show the method to be a practical way of solving time dependent reactor problems with a detailed spatial model.
