Hot-Spot Factor. The maximum value of FQ occurs where the local power density ofr linear heat rate is greatest. It is referred to as the hot-spot factor because of the relationship to maximum temperatures in a fuel pin. The hot-spot factor limits are set to prevent: 1. melting of fuel; 2. cladding-coolant interactions following loss of cooling capability. 2, record 1, English, - hot%20spot%20factor
