Methods of relating the bunnable poison concentration in a reactor to the fuel concentration during the life of the core are presented. These methcds correspond to the following ways of using bunnable poison: (1) in discrete lumps, (2) in a homogeneous rnixture with the fuel, and (3) a combination of these. Nuclear data relevant to the U/sup 235/-B/sup 10/ system are presented. (auth
