The results of theoretical studies on the effect of inertial pressures in water boiler transients are summarized as follows: (1) derivation of the equation for transient pressures in a partially enclosed container of water, (2) development of the equation of state for a mixture of water and radiolytic decomposition gas, (3) calculation of peak power as a function of reactor period, and (4) discussion of the effect of limited void space above the solution. It is intended that these results should serve as an indication of the magnitude of the inertial effects as a guide for planning the experimental program for KEWB. It is concluded that the attainable pressures represent no hazard to equipment, personnel or environs. (auth
